In January 1611, one of the highest-born members of the Hungarian nobility, Countess Erzsebet Bathory, was walled inside her castle tower and imprisoned for the rest of her life. Her crime: the brutal torture and murder of at least 35 women and girls, mostly her servants. The Countess tells Bathory's story in her own words: how this daughter of a noble family was betrothed at age ten but rebelled by bearing an illegitimate child; how she resorted to spells and potions to give her husband a child; how after the count's death she loved the man who would imprison her; and how she eventually turned to the torture and murder of her servants after her lover rejected her. This is an intimate, sympathetic, and ultimately disturbing portrait of one of the most reviled women in history.
