If the rumours about Countess Elizabeth Bathóry are true, she would be one of history's most violent serial killers. Known as The Blood Countess, living high in her castle in Transylvania, Elizabeth Bathóry tortured and killed over 650 girls and women in 20 years. She would bathe in their blood as an anti-ageing practice and engage in blood magick and ritual with her cohort of witches and warlocks. However, she was arrested, put on a show trial, and imprisoned in her castle until her death by a man whose number one goal it was to destroy her noble family. This leads many to believe she was not the murderous masochist history makes her out to be, but a victim of a political conspiracy. This week, we're decoding The Blood Countess's story.
