Double Death: The Art of Posthumous Executions

Kill me once, shame on me. Kill me twice... that's a "posthumous execution"!

 

We're back with yet another bizarre history lesson. This episode covers a grim ritual practiced by our twisted forefathers. In previous episodes we've discussed public executions - a disturbing tradition that combined capital punishment with live entertainment. For centuries, executions were performed before captivated crowds to remind the masses that crime never pays. But what if one execution wasn't enough?  

 

Join us as we investigate the gruesome history of posthumous executions and the poor souls who were unlucky enough to die twice!
