I'm been trying to find a book about Elizabeth Bathory that not only focuses on her murders but also her life from childhood to death.

I all I can seem to find are stories based on the murders.

  1. The Blood Countess by Andrei Codrescu is about the only one I found. It is not a biography, but it is still pretty good.


  2. There's a new book out about Elizabeth Bathory, in case you're interested. It's called, "Bathory: Memoir of a Countess" and the ISBN is 1439201749.  It ranges from her childhood to her death.  In addition, there's a movie, currently showing in Europe. Can't wait until it makes it to the US.

  3. The Blood Countess by Andrei Codrescu is a fictional account of her life.. (starting as a child, and going to her death) It is not exactly a biography, but it was illegal to even mention the NAME for many, many years in Hungary.  From what I understand it is pretty right on..  it's mostly just a matter of reinacting conversations nobody could ever have known about..
