— The Legend of Enriqueta Martí: The Vampire of the Raval
Known as one of the most infamous serial killers in Spain’s history, Enriqueta Martí Ripollés was labelled "Vampire of the Raval” by the press once the scandalous story of her crimes came to light. However, as with other examples of notorious and supposedly bloodthirsty women, historians debate whether Martí did in fact commit the acts that were attributed to her, or if they were invented by a society intolerant of women who didn’t conform to its norms. https://www.barcelona-metropolitan.co...

When the weather heats up, many of us take a nice cold shower to help us cool down. But while this feels great in the moment, it might not actually be helping your body cool off at all.
