The Song So Sad It Killed People | The Legend Behind "Gloomy Sunday"

*Please be aware this episode discusses topics on the theme of depression, self harm, suicide & The Holocaust. Listener discretion is advised*There are many things in life which may lead people to question their existence and place in the world but out of all the external factors which can lead to a bout of the black dog creeping in, a song may not be the first thing that springs to mind that would trigger it. A simple song created by a composer in Hungary in 1933 is said to be responsible for a number of deaths and lore has grown around the composition which says the tune itself is now cursed and any listen of it should be done so with a significant warning. But is the tune a trigger for depression so extreme it would lead to multiple people ending it all or is the legacy of its creation something far darker which would go on to change history forever...Today on Macabre Mini Mysteries, we uncover the legend behind Gloomy Sunday otherwise known as the suicide song..Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1180202350Video: https://youtu.be/xDpPb5MHYdUMacabre London is a fortnightly podcast and YouTube show that delves into London's haunted and gruesome history alongside discovering Macabre mini Mysteries from all over the world!Be sure to check out my other podcast, Killers, Cults & Queens with Cheryl Hole https://podfollow.com/queens----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------MERCH! - https://macabrelondon-shop.fourthwall.comPATREON - www.patreon.com/macabrelondon——————————-Thank you to our executive producer patrons - Amy, Christina, Christophe, Jess, Karen, Kate, Kevin, Mary, Rose, Sally, Sam, Sarah, Teresa, Vee & VeronicaAnd to all of our wonderful £5 tier patrons...AmyAndreaAndrewClaireDavidDeniseHelenJenniferJoKathrynKimLeahMrs C DohertyRachelRkrimblesSSabrinaShannonAnd thanks to all other patrons too!SUPPORT ME————————ONE OFF DONATIONS: Paypal - paypal.me/macabrelondonKO-FI: ko-fi.com/macabrelondonPATREON: www.patreon.com/macabrelondonAMAZON WISHLIST - http://amzn.eu/dJxEf1V​​​​​​————————SOCIAL MEDIA---------------------------------------------Insta: @nikkimacabrelondonTwitter: @macabrelondonFacebook: @macabrelondonEmail: macabrelondon@hotmail.comWebsite: www.macabrelondon.comSourcesDénes, L.

The Torturous Life of Joseph Merrick | The Elephant Man | Victorian History

It will come as no surprise that in the late 19th century, people who had any kind of disability were treated differently. Those who had health conditions or impairments often faced social ostracization, couldn’t get jobs and often found themselves down and out without any prospects, and in a cut throat Victorian oppressive society, this meant that life could be a very uncomfortable ride.But, for one man, he used the public fascination in his disability to his advantage to make a living, but sadly his story descended into a raw and tragic tale of Victorian exploitation, one which would end in an untimely death.Today on Macabre London, we’ll be uncovering the tale of Joseph Merrick, The Elephant man.
