  1. no, that was a hungarian(?) queen during the middle ages.(i don't ever remember reading about Cleop. having a sister,hmm) but no, cleopatras sister would not have bathed in blood, even if she wanted to, her family wasn't rich enough to afford it  and get away with it (enough blood to bathe in from a person would have meant murder or sacrifice, and enough blood to bathe in from animals would have meant wasting a great deal of valuable live stock.) and in their culture they would have thought it was repulsive because they were some of the first people to invent daily bathing. :)


  2. Which one??? cleopatra Tryumphia, or Bernice

  3. I am pretty confident that the answer is no... because Cleopatra didn't have a sister. She had one brother only.

  4. No, it wasn't Cleopatra, it was Countess Elizabeth Báthory ( August 7, 1560 – August 21, 1614), who was a Hungarian countess from the renowned Báthory family. She is known as the most infamous serial killer in Central European history and is remembered as the "Blood Countess" and as Bloody Lady of Csejte, after the castle near Trencsén, in Royal Hungary, where she spent most of her life.

    After her husband's death, she and four collaborators were accused of torturing and killing hundreds of girls and young women, with one witness attributing to them over 600 victims, though she was only convicted on 80 counts. In 1610, she was imprisoned in Csejte Castle, where she remained bricked in her room until her death four years later. She was never formally tried in court. The Báthory case is the inspiration for the story of the Countess bathing in the blood of virginal girls whom she killed in order to retain her youth.

  5. probably not

    usally that type of people, were eastern european,

  6. No, your friend got Cleopatra's sister mixed up with a Hungarian countess, Elizabeth Báthory.
