Grigori Rasputin was a Russian mystic with a great influence in the last days of the Romanov dynasty. In his place of origin he pretended to give himself an appearance of Jesus Christ and had a reputation as a healer through prayer, which is why, and thanks to a friend of the tsarina named Anna Vyrubova, in 1905 he was called to the palace of the Tsars to cut a hemorrhage of his son and heir Aleksei Nikolayevich Romanov, who suffered from hemophilia. The Zarevich did indeed improve, and the Romanov family, especially the Tsarina Alexandra, fell under the influence of this controversial character. Rasputin not only won the favor of the royal family, but also a good part of the aristocracy surrendered to him. This was due mainly to his personal charisma.
Considered a close friend of the Zarevich Alexei Nikolaevich and his personal "doctor", since he provided him with a kind of "healing hypnosis", the future of the Romanov dynasty was in his hands. If he did not save the hemophiliac Tzarevich from death the speculation about the heir to the throne was open. Thanks to those seemingly miraculous cures, Tsarina Alexandra blindly trusted the healer, since the healing tests he gave her son were inexplicable.
