No understanding of viruses. Just burning irons, toad burials, and prayers that won't be answered.In this grim, slow-burning historical journey, you’ll experience the full, unrelenting horror of rabies — from the first bite to the final breath — through the eyes of a medieval peasant who never stood a chance. Learn how the disease hides, strikes, and destroys, long before anyone knew what it was or how to fight it.This isn’t a story of survival. It’s a story of suffering, isolation, and what it meant to die terrified, misunderstood, and alone.Perfect for bedtime... if you're into that sort of thing.
