William Shakespeare: The Bard of Barf!

Sometime around 1590, William Shakespeare sat down and wrote a bloodbath of a play called Titus Andronicus. Here at Ultra-Gross, we don’t usually explore grisly topics. But since it’s Shakespeare, we’ll make an exception!

I don’t want to give away the plot, but the play has 14 murders, one live burial, and one pie made from two people and then eaten. 

Worst of all, the cannibal is a woman named Tamora who unwittingly eaten her own sons. This human-pie was made as revenge for a DIFFERENT atrocity, but anyway, now you can understand this new title for Titus Andronicus that Casey Fox came up with!
