Serial Killers as a Cultural Construct

Countess Erszebet Bathory was a breathtakingly beautiful, unusually well-educated woman, married to a descendant of Vlad Dracula of Bram Stoker fame. In 1611, she was tried - though, being a noblewoman, not convicted - in Hungary for slaughtering 612 young girls. The true figure may have been 40-100, though the Countess recorded in her diary more than 610 girls and 50 bodies were found in her estate when it was raided.

Zoey This article had a very interesting thesis, but it really needed some supporting examples and evidence. Where did Vaknin get his "information"? He could have made it all up, for all the reader knows. Maybe his book goes into more depth. 8/30/2005
