The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The tale is about a wealthy man in the habit of murdering his wives and the attempts of the present one to avoid the fate of her predecessors.
- "The White Dove", "The Robber Bridegroom", and "Fitcher's Bird" are tales similar to "Bluebeard".
- The notoriety of the tale is such that Merriam-Webster gives the word Bluebeard the definition of "a man who marries and kills one wife after another".
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Bluebeard article was read about 280,000 times in a year.
