So, naturally, they started importing women to help grow the population. But when 88 of these women arrived - deathly pale and carrying coffin-shaped luggage - it’s said they tore through New Orleans on a vampiric murder spree, leading the local nuns to imprison them in a convent attic…where some say they remain to this day.  Today, we’re exploring the legend of the Casket Girls and the real women who inspired it. Correction: The Anne Rice novel Gina mentions is Interview with the Vampire, not Interview for a Vampire. Gina pleads not guilty by reason of slight inebriation.  Story starts: 12:59 📖Book recommendations:  A Dowry of Blood by S.T.
