Gilles de Rais - History

Gilles de Rais (also spelled Retz) (September 10, 1404 – October 26, 1440) was a French noble, soldier, and one time brother-in-arms of Joan of Arc, but is perhaps best known as a prolific serial killer.

He is distinguished also by his integration of his daily prayers with his nightly crimes, both of them being for him a path to ecstasy.
