The story

In 17th-century Hungary, recently widowed Countess Elisabeth Nádasdy discovers that her youthful appearance and libido can be temporarily restored if she bathes in the blood of young women.

As a cover for her crimes while in her rejuvenated state, she takes the identity of her own 19-year-old daughter, Countess Ilona, whom she has Dobi hold captive in the woods by the mute money gambler.

Dobi finds Fabio, who has a book-chapter about blood sacrifices and tells Elisabeth the truth in return for being allowed to live.
