In this final installment of our March podcast villain series, we decided to end with a character who has been interpreted in more ways than almost any other: Count Dracula.Meaghan and Arthur dove into this rich, multifaceted figure who has stood the test of time, appearing in literature, theater, film, television, comics, and even ballet. While Dracula is far from the first fictional villain, his enduring presence makes him one of the most iconic.Across generations, the character has been portrayed in so many forms that it almost becomes impossible to count. So we took on the challenge of tracing Dracula's origins, his evolution across media, and our own personal favorites from his cinematic portrayals.The Roots of DraculaWe began by introducing listeners to the original story of Dracula, the novel published in 1897 by Irish author Bram Stoker. The novel is set up in an epistolary format, meaning it's told through letters, journal entries, telegrams, and various documents — a storytelling method that adds a documentary-like authenticity to the supernatural tale.Much of it was written while Stoker stayed in Whitby, England, a location that eventually inspired part of the book's setting. In the story, Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to help a mysterious count named Dracula purchase property in England. Things spiral into horror as Dracula makes his way to London, bringing with him death and chaos.As we discussed, there's a longstanding debate about Dracula's real-life inspiration. The common theory connects him to Vlad the Impaler, a ruthless 15th-century ruler known for his violent methods. There's also speculation around Hungarian countess Elizabeth Bathory, infamous for allegedly bathing in the blood of young girls. However, newer scholarship suggests Stoker might have chosen the name "Dracula" simply because he misunderstood it to mean “devil” in Romanian.We also touched on the thematic weight of Dracula's character - how, especially during the Victorian era, he symbolized temptation, corruption, foreignness, and disease. His ability to lure women into his power and feed on them while they remained semi-willing created a metaphorical blend of sexuality, danger, and the fear of the “other” that resonated with readers of the time.Dracula on the Screen: From Shadows to SoundWe explored how Dracula's story was first visualized in cinema, starting with the silent film Nosferatu (1922), a German adaptation that changed character names to avoid copyright issues.Despite efforts by Stoker's widow to have all copies destroyed, a few prints survived, and the film became a cult classic. Nosferatu laid the groundwork for what would become the Dracula visual standard — looming figures, haunting silhouettes, and unsettling stillness.We then examined the 1931 Dracula film starring Bela Lugosi, the first officially licensed screen adaptation. Lugosi's performance shaped the image of Dracula in popular culture: the accent, the cape, the stare.We learned that Lugosi performed the role phonetically, not speaking English fluently, which added to the eerie stillness of his portrayal. Interestingly, a Spanish-language version was filmed simultaneously using the same sets, which many critics consider to be superior in certain technical aspects.Dracula became the foundation for Universal Studios' “monster movie” identity, alongside Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Wolfman. These films established a shared aesthetic that would be drawn upon for decades.Waves of Interpretation: Gothic Horror to Sexy VampiresFrom the 1950s through the 1970s, we saw a gothic revival of Dracula through Hammer Horror films, most prominently featuring Christopher Lee. We both appreciated Lee's version — a charismatic, regal Dracula — and talked about how he portrayed the character in seven different Hammer films. In some of those, he even refused to speak if he found the lines poorly written, creating a more silent, menacing figure.The 1970s also brought in more playful and unconventional interpretations, like Blacula, a Blaxploitation reimagining. We highlighted how William Marshall's portrayal introduced a sophisticated, socially aware Dracula figure who challenged racial themes head-on. There was also Frank Langella's Dracula, which leaned heavily into romantic seduction, further evolving the character from monster to tragic anti-hero.Then came the 1992 film Bram Stoker's Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola, starring Gary Oldman, Keanu Reeves, and Winona Ryder. While visually rich and ambitious in scope, we felt it was uneven — a mix of great performances and questionable choices, particularly with casting and pacing.Modern Spins and ReinventionWe also explored how Dracula has fared in the 21st century. In the 2000s, the character began to be molded in more experimental or comedic directions. We discussed Dracula 2000, which offered a wildly original origin story — portraying Dracula as Judas Iscariot, cursed with immortality for betraying Jesus. Despite the film's overall mediocrity, we admired the creativity of that take.Then, there was Dracula Untold (2014), a more action-oriented approach that reconnected Dracula to Vlad the Impaler. While not universally loved, we found it entertaining and appreciated its attempt to craft a distinct backstory. Meanwhile, the 2020 BBC/Netflix miniseries Dracula starring Claes Bang impressed both of us deeply. We praised it as one of the most creative and engaging portrayals in recent memory, successfully blending horror, humor, and charisma.We also talked about recent comedic takes like Renfield (2023), with Nicolas Cage going full camp as Dracula. Cage's performance stood out despite the film's weaknesses — we both agreed he injected new life into a familiar character. Additionally, animated versions like Hotel Transylvania took Dracula in a fully comedic, family-friendly direction.Cultural Impact and CuriositiesBeyond film, Dracula has appeared across multiple mediums. We were fascinated to learn that he had a run in Marvel comics in the 1970s in Tomb of Dracula, which also introduced Blade. There were radio adaptations, most notably one with Orson Welles, and even ballet productions like Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary, combining gothic horror with Canadian ballet.We included several TV portrayals in our honorable mentions, such as the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Buffy vs. Dracula,” and a Supernatural episode featuring a Dracula-inspired shapeshifter. These versions brought humor and novelty to the character, continuing his evolution into satire and pastiche.And, of course, we couldn't forget the Count from Sesame Street — likely the only Dracula interpretation who's never been evil, only educational.Our Personal Rankings and Final ThoughtsWe each compiled a top-five ranking of our favorite portrayals of Dracula. While our picks varied in the lower ranks — with shoutouts to Nosferatu, Blacula, Dracula Untold, Nicolas Cage's Renfield Dracula, and the 1931 Bela Lugosi version — we both agreed that Claes Bang's portrayal in the 2020 miniseries was number one. His performance captured a blend of menace, charm, and unpredictability that felt refreshing and memorable.As we wrapped up the episode, we reflected on how Dracula, as a character, has endured through decades because of his adaptability. Whether terrifying, seductive, tragic, or hilarious, Dracula continues to evolve with the times. From Victorian fears to modern humor, he offers creators endless possibilities to reimagine what a vampire — and a villain — can be.We're wrapping up villain month with this tribute, but we're excited to start a brand new theme next week. Dracula might be going back to his coffin for now, but he'll certainly rise again.

Natty and her guest delve into the horrifying life of Elizabeth Bathory, also known as the Blood Countess, who allegedly tortured and murdered up to 650 women. They mix dark humor with spine-chilling details about her legendary cruelty, including bathing in virgin blood and sewing thieves into horses. If you enjoy true crime with a pinch of paranormal weirdness, this episode is for you—but mostly, it's for sociopaths and history buffs.My Links:Click here for merch sites, patreon site, website, to donate, and join me on social media!Guest Links:Click here for OUCH!

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - This is episode 342 - Confined to a CastleThis episode is the fourth episode of Celebrate Poe dealing with Elizabeth Bathory, the Hungarian countess accused of serial murder.  Now it was next to impossible for a person of her statue to be imprisoned, so it was said that she was confined to a Castle in Slovakia in  until her death.The nature of Báthory's confinement - like the exact nature of her crimes - has been subject to some debate. Initially, it was believed that she was bricked into a room in the castle. However, documents from a visits by local priests in suggest she could move freely within the castle, indicating it was more akin to house arrest.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 340 - Teaching Torture Techniques?  Elizabeth Bathory is certainly a fascinating figure.  I guess that ultimately we will never know exactly what she did or did not do, but the reaction to her alleged crimes tells us a great deal about the times in which she lived - especially attitudes towards the supernatural, as well as attitudes towards woman.First, the use of torture to extract confessions from Báthory's servants reflects the judicial norms of early modern Europe. Torture was considered an acceptable method for obtaining evidence at the time, even though it often led to unreliable testimony. Many of the accusations against Báthory were based on hearsay or coerced confessions, casting doubt on the fairness of the proceedings.And often when a person would be tortured, they would say ANYTHING the torturer want to hear to stop the pain - an issue that continues to the present.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

1985. Back To The Future would become the highest grossing film of the year, the Live Aid benefit would be hosted simultaneously in 2 different venues on 2 different continents, and the Coca-Cola Company would experience a catastrophic failure with “New Coke” by (once again) failing to put its namesake ingredient from the ORIGINAL “Original Formula” back in their legendary beverage.    We are well aware that there are multiple listicles already out there featuring the “Top 20 Metal Albums of 1985” because 40 years is quite the chronological landmark. Nevertheless, we still felt compelled to construct our own list. It's not necessarily all thrash, but it's not all “gloves of shame” either. In short, it's a pretty substantial sampler of the albums that WE feel represent everything great about metal in1985.   It's time to shake off those “cobwebs” and prepare for some “extraordinary news” as well as “a story of redemption and forgiveness” regarding a previous negative review we received. Learn about the earliest documented “fake news” regarding Elizabeth Bathory's alleged use of “skin conditioner” and get a sneak preview of the new album from “Dick Johnson & The Ball Brothers” when you JOIN US for the TOP 20 METAL ALBUMS OF 1985.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, or wherever you get your Podcasts.

Legend has it that at the turn of the 17th century, in a small corner of the then-Kingdom of Hungary, a noblewoman preyed on her peasant tenants, torturing and murdering them for her own sadistic pleasure high up in her castle in the Little Carpathian Mountains. Countess Elizabeth Bathory (Erzsebet Bathori, or Alzbeta Batoriova, in Hungarian and Slovakian, respectively) has been described as history's most prolific female serial killer - her death toll was said to be as high as 650 - until she was finally stopped on the order of the King of Hungary. But the story is more complicated than the tale that's been passed down. The daughter of an extremely powerful and wealthy family, Elizabeth and her husband had loaned the crown significant sums to keep it afloat during a long war with the Ottoman Empire. She herself was a Calvinist in a time when Lutherans were agitating for greater authority in post-Reformation Europe, and one Lutheran minister in particular seems to have been diligent in spreading rumors of Elizabeth's bad conduct. After Elizabeth became a widow - thus a rich and powerful independent noblewoman who was owed a large sum of money from the King - the rumors intensified significantly. Is this because Elizabeth's murder spree picked up steam, or because, for reasons ranging from sexism and sectarianism to simple power politics and repayment avoidance, it was convenient to destroy Countess Bathory's reputation for all of history?

Join us down under for this off-beat Australian vampire flick. Kate is supposedly a descendent of Elizabeth Bathory, and consequently in high demand as a mate in some vampire circles. A "modern" cult of aristocrats, who keep human cattle on a large estate for blood farming, kidnap her. They plan to initiate her into the lifestyle, whether she likes it or not.

Have you ever heard of "clinical vampirism," more commonly known today as Renfield's Syndrome? One review of psychiatric literature claims that over 50,000 people addicted to drinking blood have appeared in case studies from 1892 to 2010. But does that mean that any of them are actually, at least medically speaking, vampires? For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com

I 1609 åpnet Elizabeth Bathory en pikeskole for å lære unge adelsjenter skikk og dannelse. Det gikk ikke mer enn et par uker før samtlige av elevene var døde, og det førte til at også de adelige, og ikke minst kongen, begynte å lure på hva som foregikk bak murene til Csejthe.

Jeff Ignatowski's new book, "BEYOND THE HEADLINES: True Crime's Myths & Legends," sounds fascinating! It seems to offer more than just gripping true crime stories by delving into the myths and misconceptions surrounding infamous figures like Jack The Ripper, Dennis Rader, Elizabeth Bathory, Ed Gein, and Ted Bundy. Ignatowski's approach appears to be grounded in historical context, criminological analysis, and a critical examination of fact versus fiction.His background in counseling incarcerated youth offenders and collaborating with true crime and forensic psychiatry experts likely provides a unique perspective on understanding these notorious personalities.By exploring how these narratives have been shaped by media representations and public beliefs, Ignatowski seems to offer readers a deeper and more nuanced understanding of these cases beyond sensationalized headlines. It sounds like a compelling read for anyone interested in true crime, psychology, and the societal impact of notorious criminal cases.Scorpion Lair Games | Instagram, Facebook, TikTok | Linktreewww.unforbiddentruth.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Vi snakker om seksårsreformen og flere timer i skolen, vold og trusler, hvordan vi får barn senere i livet og hva konsekvenser dette kan ha, skjermbruk, lekeslossing og sosiale ferdigheter, Jonathan Haidts bok The Anxious Generation, behovet barn har for frihet og ansvar.  For mer info om Taakeprat, se: https://taakeprat.com/ Bokanbefalinger fra Even: The Bhagavad Gita (oversatt og forklart av Eknath Easwaran) Animal Farm, av George Orwell Sult, av Knut Hamsun I Have America Surrounded: The Life of Timothy Leary, av John Higgs ---------------------------- Logoen vår er laget av Sveinung Sudbø, se hans arbeider på originalkopi.com Musikken er av Arne Kjelsrud Mathisen, se facebooksiden Nygrenda Vev og Dur for mer info. ----------------------------  Takk for at du hører på.

Det startet med en enkel kiste. Elizabeth forklarte presten at den unge jenta som lå i den hadde død av kolera, og at det var grunnen til at lokket hadde blitt spikret igjen. Flere kister fulgte, og ryktet om at det var helt andre ting en sykdom jentene døde av begynte å spre seg.  Støtt ekte norsk podcasting på Patreon! Hosted on Acast.

Den 7 august 1560 ble grevinne Elizabeth Bathory født. Historien hennes har overlevd på folkemunne i hundrevis av år, og den har inspirert mang en forfatter, musiker og filmskaper. I denne serien tar jeg en ny kikk på Elizabeth, for å børste støvet av historien om kvinnen som på et tidspunkt var en av de mektigste kvinnene i verden, og som i dag er kjent som historiens verste seriemorder.  Støtt ekte norsk podcasting på Patreon!

Show: You Tube About CrimeEpisode: Countess Elizabeth Bathoryhttps://youtu.be/lZXH80L0rT4?si=gM_fbwxwfDQjj7CrMost people know something about this crazy bitch. Elizabeth Bathory lived and terrorized around the year 1600.  Life then was already pretty shitty, but she felt the need to make it worse for the common peasant.  She was said to torture and kill almost all of her servants, especially pretty, young girls. The details have mostly been lost to history, but the myth surrounding her led people to call her Countess Dracula. Support the showCheck out our website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/837988 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/itsalwaysthehusbandpodcast Like our Facebook page and join our group!!

Dark Windows Podcast ep. 273: This week we start off the 2024 Asshole Eliminator! Our first match up sees Elizabeth "The Blood Countess" Bathory going up against Nathaniel "The Wizard of the Saddle" Bedford Forrest. In one corner we have a woman who was accused of killing, drinking and bathing in the blood of 600+ local peasant girls. In the other corner we have man that bought and sold human beings like he was running a flea market, fought (pretty well actually) for the Confederacy and then went on to think that bed sheets would make good headwear... Looking back at the previous tournament and this one so far this is the ONLY time we had to bring in a tie breaker to see who moves on! https://pdcn.co/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/AOR3740796741.mp3?updated=1709871454 If you want more you can go over to https://www.patreon.com/darkwindowspodcast and become a Patron for just $5 a month and get a bonus episode every week!

And we are back with another historical tarot reading! We're so excited to be joined again by Tandy as we dive into the life of the infamous Elizabeth Bathory. Elizabeth Bathory has gone down in history as one of the most prolific serial killers of all time. With more money than God, she got away with torture and murder for years, until she was finally caught, convicted and locked up. Or at least, that's how the story goes. Today, we're going to see what the cards have to say about all that. Content warning: this episode gets a little dark at times. So, if you're not in a headspace for dark stuff today, that's ok!

December 30th 1610. A powerful member of the Báthory clan of Transylvania is arrested after allegedly being found soaked in blood while tormenting a young girl.
