No one messed with Pipas Pista! Pista, who was originally born Viktoria, is an interesting character that has made their mark on history as a vigilante, serial killer, and assassin. Pista is a real person with a real story, who throughout the years has become a legend and warning against men who do not respect their wives. Disclaimer: The story of Pipas Pista contains language regarding the lgbtq+ community. Pista has been referred to as the first transgender serial killer in Hungarian history. Pista is referred to as transgender in the story but it needs to be noted that Pista is not here to identify as male, woman, or other. What we do know is that Pista was married for a brief time to a man, and no other relationship is mentioned on record. Pista is a name that was chosen by Pista who was originally at birth named Viktoria. Pista frequently was seen wearing men's clothing but in the early 1900s, the language associated with the lgbtq+ community was not as evolved as it is today. The decision was made to refer to Pista as her during the early years when Pista was going under the name Viktoria, and as him when the name changed later in life.
