The life of the infamous Elizabeth Báthory has been a cautionary tale of terror throughout the ages, known as a vampiric villainess who viciously murdered over young women and girls and bathing in their blood in order to retain her youth and beauty. This Hungarian noblewoman is said to be a massive source of inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula, a woman so dangerous that the Guinness Book of Records claims her as the world's most prolific murderer. But, was Countess Báthory Erszébet a sadistic serial killer, or was she a victim of a slanderous conspiracy to crush a strong woman and others like her...?
