We tend to think about serial killers as being a modern phenomenon, but in France during the Hundred Years War, we find the story of a monster straight out of a horror film. A sadist, who kidnaps and murders young children to sacrifice them to the devil.
In perhaps our darkest case yet, we investigate Gilles de Rais. Military hero, comrade to Joan of Arc, wealthy aristocrat and… the most depraved of serial killers?
