It’s Italy Week this week! Just kidding – that’s not really a thing. But, we did forget that we were supposed to do Cult Week this week and we did also accidentally both pick stories that take place in Italy, so it’s kind of Italy Week. Maybe?

Dreia is up first and she’s going to tell us all about The Vampire of Italy, also known as Vincenzo Verzeni. Vincenzo was the first recorded serial killer in Italian history and also was super gross. We’re not into kink shaming, but we are into shaming whatever it is that Vincenzo was into. Seriously, he’s the grossest.

We’re going to travel back to the Renaissance with Maggie and learn all about Giulia Tofana and her ‘cosmetic’ product Acqua Tofana. Not much is known about Giulia, but there are claims that she poisoned over 600 men in a 30-year period. She was the hero to unhappy wives throughout Italy and even Mozart claimed that he had been poisoned by Acqua Tofana.

Thanks so much for listening and supporting us, friends! We hope you enjoyed this week’s episode. If you want to let us know how much, you can tell us through social media or email – here’s how:
