Dame Alice Kyteler


Listen Later

Dame Alice Kyteler was a wealthy woman in 13th and 14th century Ireland. People started to talk when her rich husbands started dying. Was Alice a grieving widow or a black widow? An overzealous bishop was determined to find out. When her room was searched authorities believed they found evidence that she was a witch, but what they found could have possibly just been a dildo. So was Alice a witch or was she just horny?
