Chapter 10 - ELIZABETH BÁTHORY: THE REAL DRACULA

It was the year 1500 and it was a time in which women began to have a more important role in the Society. Women no longer stayed at home as a housewife; now, women were already working and had more participation in the Society.

The women already participated in any important meeting; like, men and voted.

On the other hand, women read and had their own opinion, on any topic of importance.

At that time, there was knowledge of vampires and werewolves, because that was no longer myths or stories; if not, reality.

Elizabeth Báthory, was a countess who was thirsty for blood because two of her servants, the witch who was called Dorkó and her servant who was called Jó Llona, ​​recommended that to always look young and beautiful, she had to drink human blood.

The countess and I were friends and we shared absolutely everything; I was even there when the Countess gave birth to her four children who are called: Anna, Ursula, Catalina and Pablo.

Even though motherhood took her away from her strange activities, an obsession had been around her head for a long time.

The ineffable passage of time, the aging of her body, began to worry Elizabeth in a way that would end up becoming sickly.

With the death of her husband, Elizabeth, the idea of ​​always looking young and beautiful came to mind again; then, she obeyed what her servants, somewhat strange, recommended that she drink human blood.

Elizabeth never told me what she was doing inside the castle; but one of her servants, seeing the horror that the countess, who was up to that moment, my friend, was doing to her servants, I stopped being her friend.

This maid told me the horror that the other maids experienced; while, Elizabeth, they bled them completely and with their blood, Elizabeth, bathed.

The poor maid was living in that mansion for a few more days after that.

But, the fear, the nightmares and the ghosts of the dead servants, haunting the castle, did not let her sleep; so, he had no choice but to flee from that place.

While, for me, beauty, or youth, was the most important thing, for Elizabeth it was, because she always wanted to look young, in the eyes of others.

Elizabeth Báthory, committed, all the most terrifying crimes in history, just to quench her thirst for blood and to look beautiful and young.

He did not care at all, the lives of his victims; on the contrary, once their thirst for blood was quenched, they gave orders to be buried where they wished.

According to the few servants who managed to flee from that hell, they said that all the ghosts whom she has killed still roam the castle, tormenting her, for the murders, committed against them.

And Elizabeth Báthory, not only was satisfied with the female victims of the castle who, has killed all; rather, he went out in search of more victims.

While Elizabeth Báthory continued to kill women to obtain their blood, the people were running out of women.

The men, already tired and frightened of the abuses of the countess, gave notice to the King who gave the order to arrest the countess.

The countess died beheaded and from that moment, grief in the house.
