1610: Hungary's real life 'vampire' countess is imprisoned in her castle, the most prolific serial killer in history. But at this year's London Horror Festival, storyteller Marty Ross is going to set her free... It's one of history's great horror stories - the Countess who bathed in blood to preserve her beauty. It has inspired horror films from Hammer's 'Countess Dracula' to recent efforts starring Julie Delpy and Anna Friel. Those accounts have focused upon the Countess' gory heyday, but the emphasis in Marty Ross' storytelling show is on the aftermath... the ageing Countess punished by being locked for years in a lightless chamber in her castle, her hunger fierce as ever. Blood And Stone imagines a young maid listening to the Countess' protestations of innocence - and being lured into unlocking the door of the cell...A Lullaby for Elizabeth Bathory - T034036183 | |
