About this episode
It's the 1910s and we're off to that hotbed of crime Chicago to hear the marvellously mad tale of Tillie Klimek. Some say she had Second Sight and could predict the deaths of those around her. Others think there was a far more rational explanation...
Did she really do away with all of her husbands? Was she punished for simply not being a pretty murderess? And how do you like to taunt your loved ones?
This week's secret ingredient is...candy!
