The Tudors are still turning, friends, but with the spooky season upon us, Alicia thought it would be a wonderful time to share the scariest thing the Tudors themselves dealt with: a mysterious illness called Sweating Sickness.

For this episode, Alicia sat down with our friends Sam and Allie at I’m Horrified!, another perfect spot to showcase a horrifying and deadly disease.
