Summary

It's our Halloween episode. Elizabeth Bathory: The Blood Countess! But was she? Nathan and Katy pair a vampire-inspired drink as we gab about this supposed infamous serial killers. Was Bathory really that bad? Short answer? Probably no, but maybe. You hear a lot about how this dangerous woman bathed in the blood of virgins (which... probably isn't actually even possible), but what you don't hear about is how a lot of really powerful men owed her money. Like. A lot of money. So, was she so evil that she needed to be locked away for the safety of all the young girls in the country? Or was it just super easy to lock up a rich woman and never have to pay her back? You let us know what you think. Queens podcast is part of Airwave Media podcast network.
