Vampires through history

Throughout history or every historical moment there remains the uncertainty that if these vampire beings really existed, in the old days before Christ, they believe in legends hanging around these beings through Syria and Babylon.
There is reference of the Aztecs spilling blood in the mouths of their idols. In India, the rajas drank blood from the severed heads, also mentioning that the Chinese took care of their deceased to prevent any animal, such as dogs, cats from passing over the corpse so that it did not become a vampire.
Continuing with this tonic I bring you part of an interesting text:
This belief is echoed in a book entitled Antidote Against Atheism ('Antidote Against Atheism') written in the eighteenth century by Dr. Henry Moore. It tells the story of Johannes Cuntius of Silesia, whose corpse was scratched by a black cat before the burial. Naturally, it was later learned that Cuntius had reappeared and drunk blood. When he was unearthed, his body appeared in a good state of preservation, as is typical of vampires.
It also makes reference to the Greeks of antiquity and, later, the Romans believed in a type of female vampire called lamia that seduced men to suck their blood. Later the Greeks used another word for the vampire: vrukalakos, a creature capable of resurrecting the dead and whose victims celebrated feasts with the living. Everyone - men or women - with red hair, a birthmark or even blue eyes was likely to be a vampire. It must be said that blue eyes are rare in Greece.
What if you like them if we talk a little about Vlad Tepes III, (1428-1476), was born in the city of Sighisoara, located in the province of Transylvania, now Romania in the year 1428. The famous impaler, It was son Vlad Dracul , prince of Valaquia, called 'The Devil' and from where comes the nickname of Dracula, which means son of Drácul, that is, he is referred to as the son of the dragon and then was connoted as 'Son of the Devil'.
It must be known that a great part of the actions and deeds carried out by this character is reflected in his childhood, when he observes the atrocities his father did, raised in a war environment, tortures, murders and savages totally apart from God.

Not so much his father, to ensure his reign delivers his son to the Sultan at the age of 13, was formed within that society and educated by them, both in combat tactics, but never gave himself up to Islam. I get out of that world to claim his throne and at the same time devastated by the murder of his father and brother in the hands of the boyars.
Since then his mind only thought of insatiable need to kill and make suffer, and with more madness killed them in a thousand and one ways, especially through impalement. But his fertile imagination and sadistic instincts did not take a breath

In 1460, 10,000 men were impaled in Sibiu. In 1461 Mehmed II, the conqueror of Constantinople, a man who was not known precisely for his disgust at the outpouring of blood, turned to the aforementioned city sick with violent vomiting at the sight of the Forest of the Impaled.
In 1462 the Turks occupied Wallachia conquering its capital Targoviste, and Vlad fled to Hungary to request protection, when seeing this his wife committed suicide throwing itself to the river and its son died during the escape, but the king of that country commanded it to imprison during twelve years in the castle of Visegrád and later in Budapest, where he received a special treatment since the king of Hungary had him as if he were a visitor to the castle and did not even get behind bars. During his captivity he maintained his bloody sadism by killing and torturing doves and mice. In 1473 he regained his freedom and his throne in 1476, the same year of his death. In 1476 Vlad Tepes found the death in an ambush when the Turks caught him off guard with an escort of only 200 men of his Moldovan guard, who were also killed and only 10 of them survived, apparently an unequal struggle was provoked in the face of numerical superiority of the Turks. Vlad Tepes was beheaded and his head was sent to Istanbul and exhibited publicly.
I think about the story of this being of such cruelty, to make suffer and feed on that fear, has existed, for other people was a hero of his nation against subtracting the Turkish, what I read and tell me to spend the year he was honored as a sign of his faith to his nation, they elaborate a coin in his name as one says, and most surprising was the inspiration of a novel like Count Dracula by the writer: Bram Stoker found a brief reference to the voivode.
What surprised me the most, plus the truth that one does not know is that Stoker knew nothing about the life of the real 'Tepes' in fact many aspects of his life and his death are unknown although you do not believe it was based on the personality of this historical figure.
How about I tell you that there was also a vampire who made her appetite for blood so good, as a vital liquid to maintain her beauty every day surprises me through history these characters, well I present Countess Báthory, Elizabeth Bathory (1560 - 1614). Kingdom of Hungary.

También de sangre azul, lo interesante es que perteneciente a una de las familias más poderosas de Hungría, En 4 de enero de 1604, el Caballero Negro de Hungría, como se conocía a Ferenc su esposo, por su fiereza a la hora de combatir, murió de súbita enfermedad tras una de sus batallas y dejó viuda a Isabel que contaba con 44 años.
Es aquí cuando comienzan, según sus acusadores, sus crímenes. Para empezar, despidió a su muy odiada suegra del castillo, junto con el resto de la parentela Nádasdy; las sirvientas a las que ésta había protegido hasta ese momento fueron llevadas a los sótanos y allí recibieron por fin los castigos que, en opinión de Isabel se merecían.
Practicaba el ocultismo, para ello utiliza la sangre de muchachas jóvenes, rumores de que algo muy siniestro ocurre en el castillo de Čachtice,.lo interesante que fue muy evidente cuando comenzaron a desaparecer las bellas jóvenes de la localidad, me intereso que nobles de la familia comenzaron sospechar tal atrocidad de la varonesa, Según la investigación del conde Thurzó, hallaron en el castillo numerosas muchachas torturadas en distintos estados de desangrado, y un montón de cadáveres por los alrededores.
En 1612 se inició un juicio en Bitcse (Bytča en eslovaco). Isabel se negó a declararse inocente o culpable, y no compareció, se aprovechó su título de nobleza, pero no se percató de sus sirviente el cual también eran sometido de su tiranía, declararon sus acciones sobre las victimas había asesinado como mínimo a 37 "mujeres solteras" de entre once y veintiséis años; a seis de ellas las había reclutado personalmente para trabajar en el castillo.
Todas las personas que apoyaron a la varonesa fuero colgadas, quemada, decapitado, Pero la ley impedía que Isabel, una noble, fuese procesada. Del tal manera; Fue encerrada en su castillo. Tras introducirla en sus aposentos, los albañiles sellaron puertas y ventanas, dejando tan sólo un pequeño orificio para pasar la comida. Finalmente, el rey Matías II de Hungría pidió su cabeza por las jóvenes aristócratas que supuestamente habían muerto a sus manos, pero el primo de esta le convenció para que retrasara el cumplimiento de la sentencia de por vida. Que les parece que no se salvó ante los ojos de dios de la ley.
Todo acabo para la vida de esta mujer. El 21 de agosto de 1614, uno de los carceleros la vio caída en el suelo, boca abajo. La condesa Isabel Báthory estaba muerta después de haber pasado cuatro largos años encerrada, sin ni siquiera ver la luz del sol.
En la actualidad todavía permanecen algunas de sus propiedades en Hungría, los documentos de su juicio y su nobleza.
