Resum
Throughout history there have been seemingly inexplicable phenomena whose results have caused deaths, miracles, witchcraft trials and even profit and loss of military battles. This article presents a microbiological-historical survey where some microorganisms (Claviceps purpurea, Fusarium sporotrichioides, Stachybotrys chartarum and Serratia marcescens), may be the hypothetical cause of some of these phenomena.
