160: Countess Dracula, Erzebet Báthory | Hungary

16th century Transylvanian Blood Countess, Erzebet Báthory, was labelled as the most prolific female serial killer in history in The Guinness World Records.

Historians are divided whether she was in fact a sadistic landowner or the victim of an effective smear campaign.
