The infamous Elizabeth Bathory is a Hungarian Noblewoman holding a Guinness World Record as the most prolific female serial killer in history. But was she a cold-blooded killer? Or a wealthy widow caught in the crosshairs of a war-torn country? Join me as I attempt to unravel fact from fiction in part two of this dive into the Blood Countess, covering the charges against her, the outcome of a trial she never participated in, and her shockingly quiet end.
