For those that are interested, The Blood Contess is another of the famously decadent sadists from Romania (Valad the Impailer is from same area). This chick was a mass murder of young women and engaged in bizzar riturals including the bathing in virgin blood for eternal youth as well as being mixed up with shape shifting myths that are linked to warwolf myths.
When I heard of this story I though.. WOW these would be good flicks and set out to find some but what was originaly going to be a collection has turned into a request thread.... If you have any of the flicks mentioned below then please post em

It is unknown when Elizabeth started to kill young women, however, it is speculated that she did so some time between the years 1585 and 1610. Both her husband and her relatives knew about her sadistic inclination, but they did not directly intervene. She was constantly improving her torturing methods and her brutality was increasing. While her husband lived, it would seem she kept her activities to a moderate level, but upon his death any restraints he may have imposed on her were completely removed. The people living around her castle hated her so much that she only left the castle under an armed escort. However, she did torture some girls at her properties in S�rv�r and Kereszt�r. Her victims were initially local female peasants, many lured to Cachtice by offers of well-paid work, but when word spread of the countess's inclinations, the supply of new maids began to dwindle. It was then she began to kill daughters of lower gentry, who were sent to her castle by their parents to learn noble manners. In the early 17th century, parents of substantial position often wished their daughters to be educated in the social graces and etiquette. When it became known in the surroundings what she was (probably) doing, she had to send "assistants" to bring young women from more distant regions. As rumours spread throughout the Hungarian Kingdom, she had to have girls kidnapped in order to get them. |
