Elizabeth Ridgeway was known by those closest to her to have some serious character flaws, but many realized far too late the lengths she would go to to rid herself of those that irritated her in some way.  Jen kicks us off with 17th century apothecaries that provided many "cures" for common ailments via arsenic and other poisonous concoctions, but also provided people like Elizabeth a means to dispatch with those that did not meet her expectations via poisoning.  It was also rumored that she hid bottles of poison in her luscious locks!
Yasmine walks us through a well known lady cursed with a permanent bad hair day-Medusa.
