If you're like me then you love vampire films and you may have seen the 2009 film Countess or even Bram Stoker's Dracula to which some people insist she must have been the inspiration, for today friend's we'll be discussing The Blood Countess or Countess Dracula(depending on who you ask) Elizabeth Bathrory. Elizabeth Bathory married and received a castle as her wedding present by her husband. But when her husband was away, rumors spread that Elizabeth was tortuing and killing hundreds of girls and bathing in their blood, to stay young and beautiful.
