Black Widows




Black Widows. Most of us think of the nasty little black spider when we hear this. However, the women named after them can be quite a bit deadlier. I found this interesting article on Wikipedia concerning Giulia Toffana and her perfectly poisonous business.

"Toffana's business was finally revealed to the Papal authorities by a customer; however she was so popular that the locals protected her from apprehension."

That's just hilarious.
