Elizabeth Bathory Sadly one of the most prolific female serial killers, she was nobility and hid from prosecution and capture for a very long time. Elizabeth would lure her victims in, promising peasant girls work as maids and lower nobility girls with classes in etiquette. Not only did Elizabeth basically have immunity from jurisdiction based on her nobility rank, she also ran a tight ship of accomplices. Who knows why these accomplices helped out? Maybe because they were to scared? Who knows... Elizabeth enjoyed freezing, and starving her victims, and burning and mutilating their female parts...torturing them. Later her name became known for supposedly bathing in the blood of her victims and such earning her a notorious vampire title, but she wasn't those accounts came later and have been cast under doubt of the legitimacy of their claims. Either way this woman was definitely an absolute monster. Her body count could be anywhere from 36-600, there's no actual account of how many lives this woman took through her span of killing of 20 years. She was sentenced to just basically our form of house arrest, not allowed to have contact with humans and she died in that very room... She was reportedly a narcissistic, promiscuous woman who practiced in the occult... shoutout to Megan
Her story is very interesting especially the fact that her status kept her from the basic punishment at the time...which would have been torturing her before eventually killing her Instead she was forced to live a life of solitude which I consider more fitting
I actually did a report on her in the 7th grade. What got me is that she would take young girls and pull the hair and scalp off their heads. ? She would lock them in cages and put them in scolding hot water until they just died. And everyone knew what she was doing, but no one could prove it until someone finally got the balls to arrest her.
That just shows you what money can do. Just because of her status and the amount of money her family had, she was allowed to torture people for her own amusement. And even though she killed over 500 little girls and grown women, she wasn't even sentenced to death. She was locked in the Bathory Tower until she died. ? Really? That's beyond idiotic. If anyone else were to do that they would have gone straight to the guillotine.
