She learnt 5 languages while isolated? Gosh, I wish I had her determination
Duolingo babuška!
@@andersaxmark5871 more like, eeeh pentalinguo babuška? :D
1 day of isolation and I start losing the 1 language I actually have..
Caveman grunting by day 3
@@theamazingcowlet Duolingo is an app that helps you learn another language. Not that Baba Anujka needed it.
It's not a lack of determination that stops most of us , its they're to many distractions nowadays as compared to back then .
What kind of hard labor did they expect to get out of a 90-year-old woman?
Head of pharmacy in prison perhaps?
@Jacques Matteo de Lusignan You must really love your grandparents.
She was an Eastern European woman tho. Those women are hardy as hell! Like Russian or Scottish women. I'd bet she even put her 'all' into it, just to show them she wasn't a p**sy!
I had never heard of this lady before, but I bet she could tell some amazing stories...
Usually really tedious stuff like picking and processing flax into rope and seperating garbage for scrap metal and glass and even collecting and proccesing dog sh*t for tanning leather
@@ingridfong-daley5899 i think you got your geography wrong here
Sentenced to prison for 15 years in prison at the age of 90.
Baba: "Your honour, I may not live that long"
Judge: Then do what you can.
We can all agree that murder is wrong.
However, Grandma here survived syphilis, abandonment, the deaths of 10 children and being a widow at a relatively young age. She also learned 5 languages, became an entrepeneur, ran a successful business, lived to the age of 100 and was able to die in her childhood home. Gotta say, she was quite a badass.
And it was mostly abusive husband's by the sound of it.
Katie Frank I mean Yeah she KILLED people but girl power ya know? Like you know whatever! 🤷♀️🤪
I would add that she also played the judicial game right too and got off easy. Pretty amazing indeed/
She probably poisoned her kids too.
@@ElimGarakSpoonHead well, her victims were mostly abusive husbands so yes, power to her
They put her in prison in her 90s then later released her due to old age.... Lolol
emz koe ....yeah, and she lived to be 100 lol
yeah, women rock.
It was normal in Austria-Hungary.If she was imprisoned at age of 50 they would released her at age of 65.There was a Czech robber who killed 3 people and robbed over 20 and he was released about his 70ties.
I knooowww! Hilarious, isn't it??
I thought she was punished with hard labour....
Well, she cured his alcoholism
Haha right
Permanently
I love history and true crime. My husband accidentally pays attention to your stories more than other channels i watch. He's not into true crime so much, but you have the history he does love .
@tenebrous soul 😵😵😵😱😱😱😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Stephanie Harlowe and Georgia Marie do some great history series. Some on true crime, some not, if you're interested ☺️
@tenebrous soul I thought the same thing! LOL!
Hell'N, O Well, lol. Honey I think he scared your going kill him lol 😂
Same with my son. He is not into true crime like I am, and yet, when he passes by, and hears a Dark Curiosities episode, he stops to listen. Great voice/accent/narration and interesting, not-so-known cases!
One wonders exactly why all those women were anxious to be rid of husbands and/or lovers. After all, divorce wasn't an option in those days, and abuse was considered fairly normal. I'm not excusing murder, but I suspect at least a few of Baba's clients might have felt they had no other option.
Sounds like excusing them. There's always other options than murder.
When you’re in a situation where there may be no help, sometimes it might be. What’s worth more? A horrible human abusing and killing their wife and/or family or the wife ending his life and raising her children in a safer way? (Note the price of this stuff was pricey, these women had dowries, no doubt, and inheritance)
Some abusers definitely deserve to be murdered.
You have no evidence that her clients husbands were abusive in any way, so it's very judmental to say they were all women that had been abused.
Between 50 and 150 people were murdered....
If men had been the primary buyers, there wouldn't be a blink of hesitation to incriminate them...even though women can be abusive as well 🤦♂️
I very much appreciate when the narrator takes their time to learn the correct pronounciation of names and other foreign vocabulary they use.
It's a question of respect for the persons and it shows good work ethics.
I had a Baba... loved her until the end. She was my best friend ever.
Huh. I live in Pančevo and I've never heard of her 🤔 though, I have some old neighbors here, well into their 80s and 90s who have lived here their entire life, I will ask them maybe they know something.
Investigation begins! 😀
RestoredLife please come back and tell us what you discovered!
Yes tell us of your discovery
Jesi sazno išta?
Ooo! I want to hear about your research. Do touch base and let us know. Please. ☺️
Oh, now Im curious too! Hopefully someone remembers her.
Thank you for pronouncing all those names so well! Couldna been easy!
Wait!! Now you all know those women knew her potions would kill. She's not a serial killer. She couldn't make them give the potion. She gave them the option too do it. She's an accessory to the crime.
Exactly. She did not administer, only concocted, and sold. The others are guilty of murder.
Guilty by association she deserved the prison time
@@longshot82383 By that logic every gun seller would also be guilty by association for murders that were committed with guns bought from their shop.
I wonder how many were women trying to save their children’s and their own lives from violence? Domestic violence has been a way of life for many men throughout history. Imagine how desperate these people were???
@@Slothicans so by your logic Manson and hitler are not guilty
Your pronunciation is very good!!! I did not expect to hear someone who is foreign to pronounce Pančevo correctly. English speaking people would say PanKevo, for example. Also, they would say VladimirovaK (k for c - ts). Amazing. :)
Hemlock would definitely cure alcoholism.
That's what I was thinking. It would definitely cure it.
My thoughts while listening: hemlock cures everything, even life!
Theresa F 😂😂😂 Hemlock cures about everything , from noisy neighbours to a pain-in-the-butt husband.
@@littleredwitch hahahehahaha
🤔
This has helped my lockdown Monday what with Dark Curiosities and the amazing Brief Case launching on the same day. Thank you so much DC
Also check out ObsoleteOddity!
That's my favourite! 👍
funkychicken1212 Do you ever watch Deadly Women? All about female murderers & includes historical cases as well.
Could you really call her a serial killer any more than say, a weapons manufacturer? She was an accomplice to murder but she never committed any murders.
Agreed
Agreed
Great analogy. Also,no evidence to suggest that she pushed her clients to murder their loved ones.
Gun manufacturers don’t make guns to necessarily kill people! Guns have a variety of uses beyond murder! She knew damn well the persons intent
A weapons manufacturer? ,
I:Baba , I argue too much with my boss on work.
Baba: l got magic drink for stoping the argument with your boss.
Excellent tale. Tough names to pronounce, kudos on your efforts.
I love this story! That might frighten some people I know, as I study herbs and natural medicines but I have no desire to poison anyone!
Well.......... 😜
🤣Thanks for another interesting story. Hope you and yours are safe and well 🙏🏻✨
What a great story and your pronunciation is very good! Fascinating story intriguingly presented. Thank you!
She lost eleven children and her husband.... that's a rough start for a miraculous healer.
Perhaps she killed them.
Yes I wondered was she experimenting on her family, hence they died!?
"lost"
I’m guessing but don’t quote me that when that nasty miserable std risen exscuss for a human being got married and cranked out 11 defenseless humans. That the syphilis count in that house hold whet from one person to to 13 and the babies died and that poor man probably saved him self from working him self to death to provide for a tribe of little ones and probably died a horrible death... I highly dought that she learned five languages at all, and sounds to me like a man hating jaded women that made a living preying apoun the rest of humanity that was unlucky enough to trust her.. arsenic and murcurey I. The good medicines sounds like she had no freaking idea what she was doing unless it came to deffenitly trying to kill someone! And as far as the jaded part goes. She did fall in love with a military man from another part of the world that was there on deployment and there was gonna leave from the start this was a known thing, and as far as the std goes she deft got F’ed over !!! Not her fault! However she did intentionally have sex with another person at least 11 times and willing and knowingly gave it to him and 11 inocent helpless tiny humans that she pooped out herself yep.... she is a horrible human being and a waste of a human life along with all the others she ruined!!!! Not a hero not one to be lauded for her nothing accomplishments, and not a female roll model!!!!
We don’t call pharmacists serial killers and they handed out a LOT of arsenic back in the day.
Baba knew exactly what she was doing. She was a clever woman. If she had been in a different era she could have been a linguist or a scientist.
Guilty As.
On a side note, WTH was going on there, just how bad could all the men have been to 'deserve' poisoning?
Was there a cure for syphilis in those days?
Would the mothers illness infect the children?
And what did the children die of, I ask myself.... 🤔
Another great story and narration DC.
Good wishes to you, all you love and followers Worldwide.
Blessed Be Xxx 🙏🏼 ❤️ 🗺️ 🍀 🏴
Pre modern medicine. She would have given birth during the 1850’s to 1860’s or so....high infant mortality back then especially in Serbia
Congenital syphilis occurs when a mother with syphilis passes the infection on to her baby during pregnancy. Babies born to women with untreated syphilis may be stillborn (a baby born dead) or die from the infection as a newborn, those who actually survive can develop deformed bones, severe anemia, meningitis, blindness and deafness.
Absolutely love love these old stories. So interesting ❤️ thanks so much
Love love these old stories. They’re so interesting. I wanna hear more. Thank you 😊
love your videos. your narrating is superb!!! keep up the great work !!!
Oh man, I freaking adore your videos!!! Seriously, you're one of the best out there, especially for cold cases. I appreciate what you do!
Thank you for spending the time
Very interesting...
Thank you DC!
Brilliant thanks DC X
Murder's bad but also....murdering abusive partners? I can understand
I am from Vladimirovac and I never knew it had such a tragic backstory.I have heared of baba Anujka before,but I never really payed mind to her.
Man, I love your opening. Fairly new to your channel. Great content, thanks!
People dont understand that those times were extremely patriarchal ESPECIALLY in serbia. It's still a taboo getting a divorce and women are still scared of their husbands imagine how was it in those times then. Serbian women had no choice they had no rights so i as a serbian woman absolutely understand why they chose to do all that.
Ooo thank you TH-cam suggestions! New channel I’m gonna absolutely love ❤️
Amazing video! You're probably the best crime channel when it comes to pronouncing foreign names!! :)
Thank You Miss For Sharing!!!! Great Video!!! Well Done!!! I Love This Kind Of Stuff!!!👍😎
Awesome Video! Thank U So Much👍🖤😁
Never heard of her till now. Another great video DC!
Great video! Pronunciation is great!
You're one of the very best narrators on you tube !
What an interesting story. I love your channel, you always present interesting stories and you do so with respect to the victims and their families. Keep up the good work. I have no idea why I haven’t subscribed yet. I subscribed today!😊
Ive been watching your content for almost a year now and im from Serbia. Such a nice surprise! Never heard of the story
Excellent Video!! Thank You! When are you going to do another live stream???
This was the first time on your channel for me and it was great that was some Krazy stuff. I shall proceed with more viewing and subscribe thanks.😬
Great video!
We love an entrepreneurial woman
No doubt!
Convenient.
right on Ana !
interesting story, thank you.
Omg you guys make quarantine days much more excited! So thrilled to see this new video☺️
Love you 😘😍
Great story well researched narration and diction excellent. Hard names to pronounce. Nice presentation.
That old bag survived Syphilis and years in prison to be released and did at 100 in her childhood home. I have a slight admiration for her.
Is it was a man, you’d be calling them a monster
Thank you so much for such attention to detail. I just love ya. Helps to pass the time while I wait for my husband to finish dialysis.
Very well researched I've been to Serbia former Yugoslavia whilst staying in Beograd we we're told about baba Anna love you're videos you are a great narrator Alma and Glen Australia
Interesting story , I'm from Serbia and I've never heard of this before
Well, she's from Romania
Well that was an interesting story. 👍
THESE PEOPLE WERE JUST AWFUL. EVIL UPON EVIL. Thank you for such a great channel !! Bless !!
The music in your videos is beautiful.
What is it with these village poisoners? There are several in Eastern Europe and there was a rash of them in Essex and various Midlands places from about 1840-80.
Insurance
Here, in Eastern Europe, many of them were abused wives. They didn't have many option to leave back then.
DADDY GIRL CHANEL ONFROY The British ones were certainly done for the insurance.
Klara Poisoning has always seemed so cold blooded and treacherous to me as well as messy. Then again, I don’t live on the poverty line with an abusive husband.
Not trying to be a weirdo, but i myself being stuck with a man who is very mouthy and constantly making me miserable, and living on that poverty line because he tried to keep me barefoot and pregnant, until i had the doc tie my tubes, n not letting me get a job cuz my littlen is, " too little still, and can't talk well enough if someone bothers him ar daycare!" I can see why a woman would want to poison his arse! Hell, i think of poisoning mine about once a week!! 😂 I even threaten this fool with it, and he still acts a fool! The only thing he's got going for him is he's a decent daddy! So if that ever should fail him, and you hear on the news about a white girl who.poisons her Hispanic hubby's black beans and rice... y'all will know it was me!!! Lmao!! 😂😜 No, not really, but i can see why one would do it, and I'll eventually get sick of his crap and get up and move on down the line!!
What a dark souled creature she was . She seemed to kill without conscience and was certainly intelligent enough to be aware of her culpability.
She wasnt doing the killing she just provided the means
I am from Serbia, but i never heard of her.
Im from Pančevo, city she lived in and we kinda heard of her 😀
I'm from Alabama and me either... lol sorry
Me neither, and I'm into this sort of stuff. Nevertheless, it is an interesting story.
Isn’t it cool to learn something new? Hello from 🇺🇸:)
@@pluutoop You didn't like your grandma because she was from Serbia?! Wtf... Firstly, when this story was happening the place where the woman lived wasn't in Serbia... Secondly, in each country lots of crime happened in the past, unfortunately. Especially in the US...
Fascinating story !
Subtitles:She married Either Pissed Off :D Im lost.
Komotau4691 I heard that too! 😂😂😂😂 you would do that if you had caught syphillis from a d..khead who then abandoned you. Very befitting: Mrs Pissedoff. LOL
Oml
Chilling.
Respect to you for your channel and keeping the focus on the story other than being dolled up and having the camera on yourself..I really enjoy your videos
What an amazing story!
I think she helped people, though we only heard about the harmful services she provided. She did provide a service, but she was no serial killer. She didn’t actually kill anyone. She wasn’t the murderer. In many cases, I’m sure she provided self-defense.
The women who administered it knew what they were doing. Is it fair to judge her by today’s standards, when she lived - and acted - in a different time?
She lived by the harsh rules of a time when women had no rights. Not to their bodies, their children, property or income. A man could do anything he wanted and a woman was subject to it. Regardless of abuse, being ostracized from her family and friends, or committed to asylums with inhumane conditions, subject to horrific abuse. She couldn’t divorce. She couldn’t separate and keep children or property. Cast out with no way to support themselves, or any children they might have. Even widowers couldn’t inherit property, they had to have a male family member inherit her property and trust that he would let her remain there. No hope of raising above the circumstances you were born in, unless by marriage, and that’s as much ambition as a woman got, and even then it was decided for her by men.
Good for Baba Ana ❤️ What a personal history! She did amazing feats for a woman of her time. I love that we know her story.
A creepy character,but sweetly told😉
Hmm I guess technically she facilitated the murder of multiple people but I don’t know if I’d say serial killer. Women had very few ways out of a bad situation. Maybe in some circumstances I could understand murder as a way out. Vault sarian covered a case of an Italian woman (forget name) who was legendary for this very same thing! How many learned women through history have done the same I wonder! Thanks for covering this interesting case!
Baba: This doesn't look good...
Your honor, you look thirsty! Drink this! :)
Could you please tell the story of Walter Collins, who went missing in 1928? It's such a sad and horrifying story.
At 90 all they had to do was release this old woman and forbid her to sell or make any more potions; simple. Hard labor for a senior citizen? Who are the real criminals here? I like her spunk and fire and how she overcame losing 10 children. That has an impact. Poor woman. 😎👍🏻
Agree. No one charges pharmacists with murder or gun shop owners?? She sold the stuff she didn’t carry out the crimes..
Giulia Tofana
suspish.
I'm from Vojvodina and I heard of this case!!!
Interesting
hello! could you start adding subtitles to your videos? it would help a lot of people :)
"Keep the faith."
(I wonder what her other "qualifying conditions" for those "makers of pain"...)
-b
She's rather an interesting story
What a crazy case! Who would have thought that a 90+year old lady would turn out to be a serial killer!
wooow ,i am from belgrade , my friend is momirov and i never heard about this case)
I'm going to say this one reminds me of "The Pale Horse"...except instead of a trio of "witches" Baba Anujka is coming for you.
Yes!!
I'm gonna have to pay that one another visit. Creepy. But I'm so damn sleepy I just can't handle it. Stay safe out there. Thankyou🙏😷🤘🏼🤔
Your accent is the exact same as mine
Sad all around
Wow this is fascinating, but “hard labor” at 90? What would that have looked like back then?
100 yrs old Wow
I asked you about why you have a deer picture on the last live video you did. Thank you for being a cool girl and I love your work. Please keep it up!
Where can I find this "Magic water?" Asking for a friend.
Well it seems to be a clear example of supply meeting demand 🤣
I guess not many of them asked for the love potion then 😜
Now make one for Баба Ванга from Bulgaria.
It would seem at least to me, due to contracting syphylis from the soldier, she had a deep hatred of men. It wouldn't be a stretch of the imagination as to why she was such a willing participant...
I hope Vladimirac is referenced in the Fantastic Beasts series
Now I'm wondering if her children died of complications due to her syphillis or if she might have poisoned them.
She is literally the final boss of Babsuhkas.💀💀
The courts in Balkans still operate in this way now...God help us all from Balkan courts...
Well that is a good tip. Nevrr go on a holiday there.
@@rsamom that's just stupid. The Balkans are beautiful.
@@rsamom Nothing will happen to you here,don`t be silly.You have to come and see it for yourself.The internet is full of experiences from people all over the world and how they feel about visiting Serbia so check it out.
Neat, hadn't heard of that one before. Though she doesn't seem to fit the definition of a serial killer, at least to my mind.
From Yugoslavia?!
Romania, in a region that is now Serbia.
The picture at 3:00 looks like Borats mother, she's only 47.
Its amazing how they're more then willing to request, pay and take but when it comes to accountability they point the the finger at the women they went to for "help". I actually surprisingly condone her actions lol... oxymoronic in way
I really like her
Stores don’t get charged for items sold which are then used to kill people. She was an early pharmacist.
