00:00This story is about a horrifying and mysterious chapter hidden in the history of the Vatican,
00:05a truth that has been hidden for centuries.
00:07In the year 1742, there was a nun named Josephine Rosenthal.
00:12One day she was found to be pregnant, but she swore that she had never had sex with a man.
00:18When the doctors examined her, they were shocked.
00:21No one could understand why Josephine was still a virgin.
00:24Some considered it a miracle, but many within the church believed it was something even
00:29deeper, and more sinister Josephine did not survive the delivery, but her daughter Maria
00:33did, and from that moment on, people began to fear her.
00:37Maria had both male and female physical characteristics.
00:40The church considered her a bad omen.
00:42Every problem, every tragedy was blamed on her.
00:46When Maria turned 33, the same age when Jesus Christ was sacrificed, the church decided it
00:52was time.
00:53The priests of the church planned to sacrifice her, but Maria did not let anyone else decide
00:58her fate.
00:59She took her own life before the sacrifice, afraid that she might actually become what
01:04everyone feared.
01:06After she died, the priests beheaded her.
01:09It was locked in a decorated box dot and hidden in a deep basement of the Vatican.
01:13Now more than 300 years have passed, and the head is still hidden there.
01:18But the story does not end here.
01:19Even today, some nuns claim to have seen Maria's spirit wandering the walls of the Vatican,
01:25scaring away those who wronged her.
