This week, it's witches & weddings!
First, Lauren uncovers the case of Lilias Adie - a Scottish woman who was accused of practicing witchcraft in 1704. Adie was held in prison and interrogated day after day for over a month before she confessed only to eventually die in prison. But because she died before she could be burned at the stake, the townspeople had to bury her unlike most witch trials of the time. She was given a grave on the beach and her burial site was covered with a large stone so she couldn't rise from the dead. This was the only case of a sea interment of an accused witch in Scotland.
Next, Felicia takes us through the history of wedding rituals. Have you ever wondered why people where white bridal gowns? Or why brides will throw their bouquet to single women? Weddings have a lot of strange traditions that have evolved over the years. Listen to learn more!
