Grigori Rasputin is one of the most notorious names in Russian history - and his piercing eyes, creepy gaze, greasy hair, and bushy beard only add to the mystique surrounding him.

And in the century since the revolution, time has done little to diminish interest in the Black Monk. #GrigoriRasputin #RussianHistory #WeirdHistory | Weird History
