Rasputin died #OnThisDay in 1916.
"When the bell tolls three times, it will announce that I have been killed. If I am killed by common men, you and your children will rule Russia for centuries to come; if I am killed by one of your stock, you and your family will be killed.."

Rasputin eventually entered the court of Czar Nicholas II because of his alleged healing abilities. Known for his prophetic powers, he became a favorite of Nicholas's wife, Alexandra Feodorovna.
Rasputin became swept up in the events of the Russian Revolution and met a brutal death at the hands of assassins in 1916.
Shortly before his death, he wrote to Nicholas to predict that if he were killed by government officials, the entire imperial family would be killed by the Russian people.
His prophecy came true 15 months later, when the Tsar, his wife and all of their children were murdered amidst the Russian Revolution.
