I thought the Lady Ann was being too polite. These "widows" per se, are worse than cannibals. Genuine cannibals only feed off of their victims once and generally don't know who they're eating. These ghouls, drenched in the stink of their decayed loved ones, will be feasting on those who they purported to care about for the rest of their lives...or until they run out of media attention.
