  • Agnes Bernauer
    Agnes Bernauer was possibly the first wife of Albert III, Duke of Bavaria. Albert and Agnes were madly in love, but not everyone at court in Munich was in love with Agnes like Albert was. Agnes came from a poor family and many at court thought that because she was poor she wasn't good enough for the future Duke of Bavaria. Some hated her so much that they would even accuse her of witchcraft.

  • Dame Alice Kyteler
    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?
