Royal & Noble Serial Killers - Female 

Sorry can't listen to this awful voice

☠️NOPES☠️

Did royals have tattoos? There must of been one or two with a tattoo?

The fact you parrot the BS that is known to be false, is sickening.

You forgot zetian wu!

The truth is nobody cares, sadly!!!!

@@havanabrown515 stoooooopppp 😂😂😂😂

Yaa how are those images related ?

@@nimnakoralage1954yes. there is no single picture related to Queen Anula here.

I like her videos, but the pronounciation of anula and anuradhapura is sending me 🤣🤣

Was just about to post this! The podcast Astonishing Legends has a great series of episodes discussing her life and possible innocence.

Dozens if not hundreds of girls don't just disappear

@@3katfox They don't. Peasant lives were not considered something of worth. Literally anyone else could have killed them. Authorities only stepped in when highborn women started going poof. The one girl who was supposedly found alive after Elizabeth was arrested was never even asked what happened to her, as there's no record of her statement. There are people who believe that she was either set up by the Holy Roman Emperor (who owed her a huge debt which was conveniently canceled out after she was arrested) & other nobles wanting to quell her family's power (a scandal like this warranted confiscation of her property, meaning her kids would potentially lose it all and the crown would claim all her wealth, significantly increasing their own purse & power), the person who her husband entrusted her care to (who spearheaded the accusations and who would greatly benefit politically from her disgracement), or that these killings were done by the people accused of being her accomplises. She was not caught red-handed, as so many love to say. She was having dinner when she was arrested. The hundreds of witnesses who spoke against her were second hand accounts. They'd never witnessed anything themselves. The priest who spoke out against her only did so after rumors were already widespread. The servants accused of being her accomplises all confessed under torture, which we know today to be an ineffective means of obtaining truth. All the accusations against her were based on rumors. There isn't one letter of complaint against her, which was the means people used to put in formal complaints at the time. Had the parents of the daughters really been alarmed about her specifically, there should be written complaints. This is why many researchers into her story think the whole thing was just an extremely elaborate plot to take her family down. I'm not sure how much they succeeded in that regard though. Even the story of her being bricked up into a single room has been found to be false, seeing as visiting clergy wrote of her moving freely in the castle. She was more correctly held under House Arrest. Think about it. Peasants were seen as subhuman by many nobles, but nobility were not. Why would a very intelligent, self-sufficient woman who'd been in charge of a vast estate with several locations while her husband was off to war, including needing to set up defense for those estates and caring for wounded soldiers and people, suddenly very stupidly start praying on the daughters of her peers who would actually be missed. It makes very little sense.

I think many tales were made up about many people over the centuries. I wonder how much of history is really true.

@@jenynz5334 I agree. History is mostly written by the winners. Some of the accounts of her story came years and years later...such as her having conceived a child at 13.

bruh, that is a burn lmao

When women do it it's usually seen as lies or made up by jealous men

OMG! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who caught that. I'm not an art major but I am a history buff and have always been fascinated by the story of Erzsebet Bathory. But I actually learned about the painting of Lucrezia years ago because it was mentioned in the book "The Wings of the Dove" by Henry James whom I'm a huge fan of. I found out that her painting is often mistaken to be Erzsebet Bathory. I was also surprised to know that Lucrezia was painted by Bronzino who I know very well due to my love of all things Italian. My favorite painting of his is "Venus, Cupid, Folly and Time". 😊❤️

Good eye!

KL: agreed. 6:05 is absolutely not Bathory.

I can never see the name Lucrezia without hearing Takahata101's Abridged Vincent voice.

One of my majors in college was in Art History as well. Does not surprise me that other Art History peeps are on here. I love seeing the bueatiful paintings 🖼 depicting royal cultures on this channel.

And the image she used to portray La Quintrala is that of the TV series advertising. That face is the actor's and not Catalina's.

@@pamelafernandezdelareguera4893 Yees, and you can even see TVN's logo :D

Well, can’t have heard of everyone🤷‍♀️ I’ve never heard of her.

2 soap operas in chilean tv. And in the pictures you can actually see Raquel argandoña

@@genjamescmcconville7294 creepy much 😂🥸😬😬😬

😯😳

Wow

Whoa. That's scary. 😳

Just the thought of someone bathing in blood gives me the hibbie jubbies! 😖

@@goldenrosie ikr? The diseases…

Makes sense…considering how quickly a basin of pure blood would start to congeal, she’d have to add something to keep it fluid like in order to have a bath in the stuff. If anyone had access and knowledge to anticoagulants in medieval Transylvania, it would absolutely have been the Countess lol

3.5 - 4 L blood in average women. A couple of women could supply a bath. Bathtubs weren't huge then. Water had to be heated, carried for a bath.

@@dalestaley5637 It wasn’t volume that they are talking about..

If that were true, we'd have similar amounts of male and female murderers these days (with advancement in DNA, in most first world countries the majority of murders gets solved relatively quickly). But it's still mostly men. You're right that poisonings are more difficult to even detect, let alone find the responsible party but it's not as if men never use poison/it's not available to them. Considering it holds true that men globally are more likely to murder someone, regardless of culture, religion or creed, it's probably just that men are naturally more aggressive than women. Unless you're arguing that it used to be women but something changed and now it's men... it's probably that back then, it was much easier to also just pin things on women (in addition to the real female murderers of course) and it was just more salacious to read about female murderers, so we have more sources about that than about random old randy who murdered his third woman after raping her.

@@strange144 Well said

I agree they could be lot more female killers that go unnotice especially if the victims are random. Women rarely use physical violence and/or abuse to kill there victims and the one that do become famous.

@@strange144 I would say people are more fascinating and more willing to make excuses for female killers, because many believe is not in a women nature as a life giver to take one's life so very similar to victim blaming we try to find a valid reason why they did what they did. But I get where you coming from it could very well be that someone of the women back then especially with weak to no evidence where innocent and where perhaps framed by man or even other women of crimes they never committed.

Exactly what I was going to say! I agree 💯 %!! I think female serial killers nowadays just go unnoticed 🤪

Evidence says otherwise

There wasn’t any evidence. It was second hand ‘evidence’ and evidence obtained under torture. In the medieval period it was quite common for these kind of false accusations to take place in order to remove a person from power. Similarly the witch trials were for reasons that had nothing to do with actual sorcery. Scholars now generally believe she was innocent and her trial was purely political.

Many things said about her are exaggerated, but there is no denying that she was a serial killer where the number is still substantial.

@@KL-ki8db but that`s exactly it. The numbers are completely made up

Idk dawg they kind of desecrated her grave out of anger

Maybe it's because she isn't as well known as Elizabeth

It might be that most of her kills were done by those serving her (under her orders). Bathory was similar, but she was also believed to play a more active role at times.

@@Lauren.E.O Add Bloody Mary too

That's true even I was expecting her n bloody Mary!!!

@@sqseq1237 less than 300 Protestants killed under blood Mary. Nearly 900 Catholics killed by her sister . Bloody Elizabeth is every bit as accurate as Bloody Mary. More so by numbers . Look it up. Bloody Mary is an awful moniker and not deserving at all. Her father Henry Tudor slaughter thousands and his Boleyn daughter was working her to a thousand meanwhile mary was at 256 ( just googled for the answer ) also says some say as many as 300. Soooooo it seems a ridiculous moniker given the disgusting relatives she had 🤷🏻‍♀️ Elizabeth is still this beloved Queen but she wasn’t a virgin she wasn’t even a Christian and she killed people who got in her way routinely as well as hundreds of Catholics.

I feel really bad for you and your parents

You can't choose your family. At least you have an interesting story to tell at parties. 😊

@@simoneanne01 an interesting story and a good warning to people to NOT come after them or their family. I mean,I'd hesitate to cross them in a mistreatment way knowing that.

The whole planet is a huge graveyard. Every day we make choices that k*ll others - like buying food that isn't local, using batteries, gasoline, etc. You have no reason to feel bad. We are all murderers - Destroyers of Earth. It is in our nature.

In Bathory’s case, her husband was at war for much of their marriage so she was left to her own devices a lot of the time… and was left to fend for herself…. maintaining and defending her vast estates and numerous castles. Some people would see the lack of control had her indulge in whatever she wanted with impunity.

Horny fan art of Vlad Dracula?

There actually is horny fanart of Gilles de Rais. He has a fan group. I don't recommend searching it up. The art is terrible. Even though he's not a serial killer, I even found porny fanart of Louis XVI. He's also got a fanbase around him that like to replace Marie Antoinette with themselves. Don't ask me how I found out about any of this. I am still too traumatised about it all.

Ikr, that french lady, for example, was systematically oppressed, taken advantage of, and ripped off by her own father, husband, and brothers respectively. The law gave her no rights to challenge these men in her family. As they say, do not drive people into the corner or they might do unthinkable things back in return. The only people I feel bad for are her servants and the poor who were innocent. And if the story went as told here then unlike most other serial killer stories she didn't just kill these people for pleasure.

And being spoiled without having serious risk of consequences probably doesn't help

And the first picture is from Sigiriya .

I first heard about Delphine LaLaurie through ghost stories in books. Those gave me nightmares with how descriptive they were and then when I found out she was a real person and she did what she was guilty of, it made me feel worse. LaLaurie is the stuff of nightmares.

I am curious though if she counts as a noblewoman as she was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. The US didn't have nobility on count of the break from Great Britain.

Well, Nick Cage bought the LaLaurie house after Katrina, for a large price and renovated it. Since then he's been unable to sell it because --supposedly--once buyers learn who the Mme. LaLaurie was, no one wants to touch it.

"History is written by the victors" strikes again

Careful kid, your brains are showing.🤗

I agree! I the case of Elizabeth Bathory, I feel that they faked those killings so that her land and wealth could be stolen from her. She was vulnerable since her husband passed away.

Very good point. It's too common to see history smear women with accusations just to undermine their authority and overall image because they weren't "proper women" taking power. Reminds me of business owners in medieval and renaisance times who were accused of witchcraft for being more succesful than men. Or examples like Nefertiti (ancient egipt queen) who was erased from official records after her death, and we only came to know of her because of alternative sources. I partcularly like that legend of a female Pope that's never confirmed to have existed because supposedly any records that told of her were destroyed by the church.

There were complaints made against Bathory by the clergy for years and those who were tortured were her immediate accomplices. I see people today cannot handle the fact that women in power can abuse their position as readily as the men.

@@JillyDoom666 That wouldn't be a surprise. Most of the royalty and nobility of Europe, were related in some way or another.

Very doubtful she bathed in their blood since blood would have gotten to thick to do so. And the amount to fill a bathtub ...

*Note about Cristo de Mayo: the thorn crown somehow slid down Jesus' neck (it's not clear if it was due to the defenestration or the 1647 earthquake) and the myth says that if you try to pull it up to it's rightful place, the ground starts shaking!

I support

I agree

I see your point, but there's a difference between a serial killer and someone who kills to get or stay in power.

Pardon me but her pronunciations of South Asian names are cringeworthy.
