The Countess
is based on the life of Countess Erzebet Bathory,
who lived in
16th century Slovakia. The topics are eternal youth,
great romantic love and intrigues against the
most powerful woman of her time. It
is the period when witches were burnt and
torture was commonplace.
Legend says, that Bathory bathed in the blood of
virgins to attain eternal youth. But was this woman really the monster
we read about today? Or is she a victim of her
power-hungry enemies who cast her in this
role?
