Female serial killers are far and few between but those who have existed have left long paths of blood and torture in their wake. Elizabeth Bathory is one of the first female sadomasochists, femme fatal and is currently the most prolific female serial killers in history. Elizabeth and her story have been mixed together with myth and reality. The blurred lines between her real life and her mythical consumption of flesh and blood have led to the creation of her infamous moniker, The Blood Countess. Whether or not the stories are true the stories of the servants who were tortured in her castle have left a lasting impression of what when on behind closed doors among the noble and ruling classes in Central Europe.
