Dubbed "The Blood Countess" she was convicted for killing hundreds of young girls throughout the Kingdom of Hungary. Her methods of killing were torture, beatings and mutilation. Over the last several hundred years numerous accounts have claimed that she even bathed in the blood of her victims (the most famously the tale that she bathed in the blood of virgins to retain her youth)   .The stories of her serial murders and brutality are verified by the testimony of more than 300 witnesses and survivors as well as physical evidence and the presence of horribly mutilated dead, dying and imprisoned girls found at the time of her arrest Stories which ascribe to her vampire- like tendencies were generally recorded years after her death and are considered unreliable. Her story quickly became part of national folklore, and her infamy persists to this day.She is often compared with Vlad III the Impaler of Wallachia, on whom the fictional Count Dracula is partly based, and has been nicknamed The Blood Countess and Countess Dracula.

Her killings went on during 1590-1610
