The Romanov Imperial House ruled Russia with an iron fist for 300 years. In that time they made plenty of enemies. From a grief-stricken mother who foretold the demise of the dynasty, to a scorned Tsaritsa who cursed St. Petersburg to calamity. From a hermit monk who claimed to know the hour of Catherine the Great’s death, to another monk, Rasputin, who cursed Tsar Nikolai’s family for causing his death. All culminating in the tragic slaying of the Imperial family, which fulfilled not one but two famous curses. Let’s take a spooky stroll through 3 centuries of Russia’s dark history and explore 4 curses and ominous prophecies laid on the Romanov dynasty.
1. “You began with the death of a Tsarevich, you will end with the death of a Tsarevich!” Ivan the Terrible, False Dmitry, Marina Mniszech, Michael Romanov
2. “St. Petersburg shall be empty!”
Peter the Great, Eudoxia Lopukhina, Empress Catherine I
3. “Empress Catherine will die in 10 months and 10 days!”
Catherine the Great, Monk Abel, Emperor Peter III, Emperor Paul I
4. Rasputin’s Curse "The Russian people will kill them!"
Emperor Nicholas II , Alexandra Feodrovna, Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, Alexei
