On Episode 35 of Horrible History, Emily takes us to Chicago to learn about one of the true stories behind the murderess row (inspiration for Chicago the musical). We learn about Tillie Klimek, a black widow and all-around shitty person that loved arsenic! Then Rachel creeps us all out by sharing the story of Robert Gene Otto, a little boy (and eventual man) that had a weird relationship with a haunted doll. Hopefully, you're horrified.
Trigger Warning: child death, haunted children
