Dive deep with us as we unravel how Leonarda's obsession with protecting her family, combined with a misguided belief in the power of the number 13, led her down a dark path of murder and macabre rituals. We'll explore the eerie quiet of Correggio, Italy, where Leonarda turned her victims into soap and tea cakes, serving a dose of horror that's hard to digest. With a narrative that's as compelling as it is horrifying, this episode promises to be a real slice of true crime history, kneaded with detail and sprinkled with the darkest of humor. So, tune in, if you dare, to discover the story of the Baker's Dozen that proved unlucky for all the wrong reasons. It's a tale that's guaranteed to leave a taste you won't soon forget.
