Countess Dracula is a 1971 British Hammer horror film directed by Peter Sasdy and starring Ingrid Pitt, Nigel Green and Lesley-Anne Down.[1] It was produced by Alexander Paal.
Countess Dracula was inspired by the infamous Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Báthory (1560–1614), a landowner and noblewoman who was accused of murdering dozens of women and girls.[citation needed] Her husband was Ferenc Nádasdy, Nádasdy being the surname given to the Countess in the film.
