Episode Description
Coming soon....
You loved the movie, didn't you? We did too.
But the real story behind Anastasia isn’t a fairytale, it’s one of revolution, brutality, mysticism, and tragedy.
In this upcoming episode of Spirits Uncorked, we dive into the true history of the Romanov family, the Russian Revolution, and the man who became one of history’s most infamous figures: Grigori Rasputin. Was he a mystic healer? A manipulative cult leader? A political scapegoat? Or something darker?
We unpack the execution of the Romanovs, the enduring myth that Anastasia survived, the women who claimed to be her, and the DNA evidence that finally closed the case. And of course, we explore the Rasputin legend — the poison, the shooting, the icy river, and the so-called “curse” that seemed to follow the royal family.
It’s a ghost story without a ghost. A missing person case when she wasn’t missing at all. And a mystery that may be solved… but still lingers in our collective imagination.
Pour a drink and join us.
