If you\'ve seen American Horror Story: Coven, you should be familiar with the name Delphine LaLaurie. Kathy Bates portrayed the very real woman who\\u2019s infamous for torturing her slaves in the most horrific ways. But, are the stories true?

In this episode, we share the gruesome stories, some evidence that indicates maybe she wasn\\u2019t as awful as the stories make her seem, and why some people she may have continued her potential reign of terror long after an angry mob forced her to flee New Orleans in 1834.
