This week it's horse girls and hoarse guys!
First up, Felicia covers another supernatural creature from Central American folklore - the legend of the woman Sihuehuet who, in some cultures, turned into La Siguanaba by a curse. Similar to other Siren stories, La Siguanaba initially takes the form of a beautiful woman....she looks like any other attractive, long-haired woman who happens to be scantily clad or, in some cases, just fully unclad (naked). La Siguanaba then lures unsuspecting men in this way before she reveals her face to be A HORSE HEAD! (Do you think when she did this she said "Hayyyyy"?)
Nay, we digress. Next, Lauren explores the case of Giulia Tofana, an Italian woman who was a "professional poisoner" in the 1600s. Her main product - a poison called Aqua Tofana that she sold to women who wanted to murder their abusive husbands. She even went so far as to set up a kind of underground poisoning ring under the guise that she was selling cosmetics to women. Giulia was actually able to get away with it for quite a long time...but wait until you find out what happened when one woman got cold feet about killing her husband...
Giulia probably just needed a signature tagline for her scent. Aqua Tofana - "Strong enough for a man (to die), but made for a woman (to kill he husband)"
