S1E2 Elizabeth Bathory Part 2
Welcome back to the conclusion of this two part episode discussing 16th century Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Bathory, eastern Europe’s most notorious female serial killer and alleged vampire. In part one, we discussed how Elizabeth was accused of the murder and torture of somewhere between 120 and 650 young girls so she could bathe in the blood of her innocent victims to stay young and beautiful forever. Join us as we conclude our our episode with the arrest of Bathory, the allegations of vampirism, and listen as we play devil's advocate in whether Elizabeth Bathory was just an influential and wealthy member of the Hungarian elite that was slandered after her death or was the countess really a blood thirsty vampire searching for eternal youth?
