Countess Bathory

Countess Bathory...

I love to draw creepy looking girls... Countess Bathory's story is quite interesting, although not nearly as mysterious as the public perception of the "bloody countess". There's no account of her bathing in blood trying to stay young. I think she's probably just a sexual sadist. She has numerous lovers, and she's believed to look exceptionally young, even when she's in her late 40s.

I think the most horrifying part of the story is the end of Countess Bathory, she lived in a walled up room for 4 years until her death. People send in water and food from a little opening on the wall. The guard found several plates of food untouched, and then discovered her body. No one even know when she died.

If I end up like that, I'd probably become a vengeful spirit and haunt the countryside for eternity.
