Not Just A Bad Movie But Also Historically Inaccurate


Elizabeth Bathory was accused of killing up to 650 young women in the late 1500s and early 1600s. Bathory's victims were poor peasants, servants who worked for her, and young virgin women who were lured by her with the prospect of being her servants. Bathory tortured, bit, cut and ripped off these women's flesh. Victims of Bathory, and those working for her, also claimed Bathory bathed in the blood of those she killed and tortured because she believed the blood of young virgin women would preserve her youth and beauty.

Historical Inaccuracies With "Fright Night 2: New Blood"

1) Elizabeth Bathory originally had a castle and lived in Hungary, not Romania as "Fright Night 2: New Blood" suggests.
2) Bathory did not have an English accent (obviously if she is Hungarian).
2) The actual castle Vlad Tepes (Dracula) lived in in the 1400s is now mostly destroyed. "Fright Night 2:New Blood" films a castle and calls in Castle Dracula and says it is where Vlad Tepes lived, even though it really was not the actual castle where he lived.

"Fright Night 2: New Blood" is based on real historical figures and real historical facts that the producers could not portray correctly, which really pisses me off. The producers and writers of this movie make and a crappy film and also come off as stupid and ignorant while doing it.

ALL THIS INFORMATION ON ELIZABETH BATHORY AND VLAD TEPES CAN BE EASILY ACCESSED ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL WHICH CAN BE VIEWED ON YOUTUBE.
