Who knew powdered wigs and harpsichords could be so deadly?

In this laughably lethal episode of Macabre: A Dark History Podcast, Halley and Blaire take you on a twisted tour of the Baroque era's most bizarre and ridiculous demises. From exploding toilets (yes, royal ones) to fatal fashion statements and one poor guy who literally laughed himself to death—this episode is proof that history really did have a dark sense of humor.

Expect drama, death, and an unhealthy number of puns. It’s like a costume drama… but everyone dies horribly.
