This case couldn’t be more fitting for our Halloween special. It really has it all, and probably not in a good way. We are discussing the tragic true  case of Leonarda Ciancuilli. Born out of hate, and a victim of extreme trauma herself-Leonarda’s life was full of pain and tragedy and as a result she becomes obsessed with various forms of the occult, Wicca and other alternative spiritual practices and the outcome is shocking.
