The murderous medieval king who inspired "Macbeth" - Benjamin Hudson

Of all Shakespeare’s plays, perhaps none is stranger than “Macbeth”— a parable on power rife with supernatural elements.

Which raises the question: just how much of Shakespeare’s strange story is true? Benjamin Hudson investigates.
