Cases of Double Black Widows
News of the Times Episode 464 | 1851 & 1875
In today’s episode, we delve into two chilling cases where a wife’s murderous intent wasn’t satisfied with just one husband.
Our first case takes us to Newcastle in 1851, where Mrs. Teasdale—well-known for her violent temper—is tending to her ailing husband, a market man who has fallen mysteriously ill. With no one else in the house to care for him, all eyes turn to his volatile wife. But when whispers of suspicion arise, another dark revelation emerges—her first husband also died under unexpected circumstances…
Our second story takes us to France in 1875, where a strikingly beautiful woman leaves an eerie trail of death behind her. Every man who crosses her path meets a grim fate, yet she continues to lure them in.
And for today’s further particulars case, we visit Notre Dame in 1892, where a monastery is plagued by violently ringing bells that refuse to be silenced. The more they try to stop them, the louder they ring…
