  1. Mondo Diablo Episode 217: The Blood Countess Part 1

    Elizabeth (Erzsébet) Báthory was known as The Blood Countess because of her sadistic abuse of servants and probably others in her quest for youth and beauty, and probably sexual thrill. She was a countess in Transylvania in the late 16th/early 17th century during the time when nobility was considered to be a species apart from mere humans.

    The Blood Countess radioplay on Nightfall, a CBC Toronto production, was produced in 1980.

  2. The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostava

    The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova was the fastest-selling first novel in U.S. history and the first debut novel to enter the New York Times Best Sellers list at no. 1. The culmination of 10 years of research, the intricately plotted historical novel brought to life the story behind the legend of Vlad the Impaler who inspired the Dracula legend. In her eagerly awaited second novel, Kostova unspools a sweeping tale of historical intrigue spanning centuries and continents—with madness, obsession, and the power of art to preserve human hope taking center stage.
