About the play

In 1610 a group of Hungarian reverends discover chilling evidence that the Countess, Elizabeth Bathory, may be responsible for a string of murders at her castle in Cachtice. Powerless to bring her to justice alone, they fight to bring their concerns to the nobility - however, when the full magnitude of her evil is discovered, Hungary is plunged into a political crisis which will test its very soul.

This original script written for the Woolgatherers of Heswall tells the story of history's most prolific serial murderer, using historical research to bring the real figures in these events to the stage. This large-scale production boasts a vast array of talented actors and is not one to be missed
