In this episode, we explore the dark legacies of Elizabeth Bathory, the "Blood Countess," and Gilles de Rais, a knight turned murderer. Bathory is said to have killed hundreds of young girls in pursuit of eternal youth, while de Rais allegedly performed horrific rituals after fighting alongside Joan of Arc. Were these tales exaggerated over time, or is there truth to the legends?
Join us as we separate fact from fiction and discuss what makes their stories lasting symbols in true crime history.
