On #ThisDayInHistory in 1606, #GuyFawkes escaped most of his treason sentence for the #GunpowderPlot. He was supposed to be drawn behind a horse, non-lethally half-hanged, emasculated, disemboweled, & hacked into quarters, but broke his neck at the second stage in the execution.
#OTD 31 Jan 1606
Wintour, Rookwood & Keyes were hung drawn & quartered, 4 others met their fate on 30th
#GuyFawkes last to the scaffold asked for forgiveness & weak from torture managed to jump to his death breaking his neck & so spared the agonising fate of his co-conspirators

What secrets await at Crestwell Hall?
The story of Guy Fawkes and Robert Catesby is famous but what if there’s another tale? One told by the women. One that has finally been revealed. What if the wives are ready to have their say?
Think you know the Gunpowder Plot? Think again.

8 November 1605: The final Gunpowder Plotters were killed or captured at Holbeche House in Staffordshire. #History #GunpowderPlot
Robert Catesby, ringleader of the Gunpowder Plotters, was among those killed at Holbeche House.
Great to see this podcast with the late Professor James Sharpe discussing the #GunpowderPlot is trending again www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6-0...
On November 5th, I like to watch “V for Vendetta”, even if it completely miscategorizes the Gunpowder Plot.
It’s a fantastic film, but it’s becoming dangerously close to reality here in the US.
“Governments should be afraid of their people.”

A person wearing a black hat and coat with their face painted like a skull stands among a crowd holding flaming torches during a nighttime Bonfire Night celebration. The flickering firelight casts a dramatic, festive glow, evoking the spirit of Guy Fawkes Day in the U.K.

Captivated by the idea of Bonfire Night, Silas and the vampires pile a load of planks, wooden stakes and a few occupied body bags to set up fireworks of their own.
