About this episode

This episode explores the mystery surrounding Anastasia Romanov, the youngest daughter of the last Czar of Russia, and the events leading to her family's brutal murder.

On July 17, 1918, the last Czar of Russia Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra Feodorovna, and their five children were brutally murdered by communist revolutionaries known as the Bolsheviks. Though the Bolsheviks claimed to have murdered the entire family, their bodies had been so marred and later buried in unmarked graves that many speculated the youngest daughter of the five Romanov children, Anastasia, had escaped. It would be nearly a century following her execution that the mystery surrounding Anastasia Romanov would be finally allowed to rest. https://allthatsinteresting.com/anastasia-romanov Learn more about your ad choices.
