Do you know what my favourite supernatural creature is? It’s a werewolf! In European folklore; werewolves are humans who are able to turn a wolf at night and return to human form by day. Some change shape at will while some do not, and usually it is under the light of a full moon.What I have always found the most fascinating is how this creature by day looks just like the rest of us, but after the sun sets - they turn into a monster. And it is for that reason that a serial killer in Siberia was forever linked to this creature.So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of the man who has been nicknamed “The Werewolf of Siberia” and of another who had been given a similar title.

There is a type of female killer that has become so infamous that they have their own nickname - the black widow. This name comes from the Black Widow spider that are found all over the world. They are considered to be the most venomous type of spiders found in the United States, so people are naturally not big fans of them even though people rarely die from their bites.But it wasn’t due to their venom that these spiders are compared to deadly female killers. It is actually because of a a widely circulated myth that the females of the species eat their mates after sexual contact. While this actually does happen sometimes; this isn’t regular behaviour. This didn’t stop this falsehood persisting today, and now being attached to women who decide to murder their lovers.These women are a lot more dangerous than their spider counterparts, and are known to act out their anger, sociopathic tendencies, or desire for financial gains by killing their husbands, boyfriends, or both. One of the most famous was a woman who immigrated to the United States in 1881. It is said she killed over forty people, but the murderess herself disappeared without a trace.So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale Belle Gunness, the black widow of the American midwest.
