On February 3, 1014, the most powerful Viking in the world sat down for a victory banquet. He was the first Viking King of England. Minutes later, he was dead—killed, he claimed, by a ghost no one else could see.
In this episode of "On This Day," we explore the bizarre and terrifying death of Sweyn Forkbeard. After brutally conquering England and mocking the local saints, Sweyn was at the height of his power. But in the middle of his celebration, he suddenly began to scream. He shouted that Saint Edmund—a man who had been dead for 150 years—was attacking him with a spear.
Sweyn fell from his throne, writhing in agony from an invisible wound, and died that night. Was it a stroke? Poison? Or was it the only recorded instance of a British King being assassinated by a phantom?
