Cachtice Castle and Elizabeth Bathory Redux

Cachtice Castle and Elizabeth Bathory Redux

The Cachtice Castle lies in ruins in Slovakia, but was once a home to royalty. This then became a prison for Baroness Elizabeth Bathory. Her family was known for cruelty and she knew violence from the time she was a child. Legends claim that she grew up to become the "Blood Countess," a prolific female serial killer. But was she really that or has history given her a bad rap via a story concocted by people who wanted her power and possessions? The Castle is a magnificent, but crumbling structure that many claim is haunted because of intense emotions and pain trapped in the stone. Does Madame Bathory still walk its halls? Join us for the history and hauntings of Cachtice Castle.
