The premise

An evil witch brings back to life the infamous Elizabeth Bathory, who was executed several hundred years previously for murdering young women and bathing in their blood.

Horror Vault's take

Deep within a crumbling European castle, dark sorcery stirs as a witch sets out to resurrect the legendary Countess Elizabeth Bathory — history's most notorious killer of young women. Standing in the shadows between the living and the damned is Waldemar Daninsky, Paul Naschy's iconic cursed werewolf, who finds himself entangled in a collision of monstrous forces. This Spanish gothic horror entry pits classic creature against classic villainess in a candlelit atmosphere thick with dread and old-world menace. Fans of European horror tradition will find plenty to savour in its lavish castle setting and unabashedly lurid sensibility.
