The death of Rasputin - December, 1916. One hundred years ago on 30 December 1916, Grigori Rasputin, the Russian mystic who became a confidant of Tsar Nicholas II and his wife, was brutally killed. After supposedly being poisoned, shot and beaten, he was thrown into the freezing waters of St. Petersburgâs Neva River by aristocrats fearful of the influence he wielded over the Romanov court.
After the royal family was executed, it was found that Anastasia and all her sisters wore amulets bearing Rasputinâs picture and a prayer. There are those that are very critical of his close ties to the Romanov family, while there are others that just see Rasputin as loyal friend to the family and a man of peace. What he was NOT, however, was a man who sold his soul to the Devil and had a personal vendetta against the family, wanting them all dead.
