Báthory and four of her servants were accused of torturing and killing hundreds of girls and women between 1590 and 1610. Her servants were put on trial and convicted, whereas Báthory was confined to her home. The charges leveled against Báthory have been described by several historians as a witch-hunt. Stories about Báthory quickly became part of national folklore.
Legends describing her vampiric tendencies, such as the tale that she bathed in the blood of virgins to retain her youth, were generally recorded years after her death and are considered unreliable. Báthory was born in 1560 on a family estate in Nyírbátor, Royal Hungary. She spent her childhood at Ecsed Castle. As a child, Báthory had multiple seizures that may have been caused by epilepsy. A proposal made by some sources in order to explain Báthory’s cruelty later in her life is that she was trained by her family to be cruel.
Báthory was raised a Calvinist Protestant. At the age of 13, before her first marriage, Báthory allegedly gave birth to a child. The child, said to have been fathered by a peasant boy, was supposedly given away to a local woman who was trusted by the Báthory family. In 1573, Báthory was engaged to Count Ferenc Nádasdy, a member of the Nadasdy family. It was a political arrangement within the circles of the aristocracy. The marriage resulted in combined land ownership in both Transylvania and the Kingdom of Hungary. After the wedding, the couple lived in Nadasdy’s castle at Sárvár.
In 1578, three years into their marriage, Nádasdy became the chief commander of Hungarian troops, leading them to war against the Ottomans. Báthory managed business affairs and the family’s multiple estates during the war. Báthory’s daughter, Anna Nádasdy, was born in 1585 and was later to become the wife of Nikola VI Zrinski. Ferenc Nádasdy died on 4 January 1604 at the age of 48. Although the exact nature of the illness which led to his death is unknown, it seems to have started in 1601, and initially caused debilitating pain in his legs. From that time, he never fully recovered, and in 1603 became permanently disabled. He had been married to Báthory for 29 years.
