Enriqueta Martí

Common card · No. 441539

Enriqueta Martí Ripoll (2 Feb 1871 – 12 May 1913) was a Spanish child serial killer, kidnapper, prostitute and procuress of children. She was called "The Vampiress of carrer Ponent", "The Vampiress of Barcelona" and "The Vampiress of the Raval" in the press. Some researchers have, however, asserted that she was not a killer of children, but rather a person with mental disorders who can only be proven reliably to have abducted one young girl, Teresita Guitart. They also contend that the acts that are attributed to her could not be proven.
