Elizabeth Bathory was a Hungarian countess in the 16th century. Legend tells that she murdered several hundred victims as she believed bathing in their blood would restore her youth and preserve her beauty. She was believed to be a vampire. The below photo is a depiction of her secret bathroom hidden deep within her castle. She is relaxing in a bath of her victim’s blood. Next to her bath lay the heads of some of her unfortunate victims. “Good” said the Countess, “I feel rejuvenated, the blood is working.”
“I will keep my beauty and youth” A perfect fit for the Face Show!
