Elizabeth Báthory, the Blood Countess of Hungary, was accused of killing over 600 girls to bathe in their blood—seeking eternal youth. But how much of it was true? In this chilling episode, Victoria Unikel separates fact from myth, revisiting witness testimony, castle records, and court politics that shaped one of history’s darkest legends.
Was Báthory a vampire, a witch, or a political threat? And what can her story teach us about obsession, gender, and legacy? We end with a symbolic ritual—a meditation on immortality and personal power, not taken from blood, but intention.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
