Episode 113: Netta Fornario
This week Emma brings us the mysterious story of Netta Fornario, who was found dead on the isle of Iona in November 1929.
Emma talks of Netta's fascination with the spiritual and occult and of the odd behaviour she displayed during her time on Iona.
We also hear of the peculiar scene where Netta was found, leading to further suspicion around occult practices.
Emma tells us of the speculation around a cleansing ritual gone wrong and also of marks on the body that may suggest a more sinister end.
