The Prince's paternal line goes all the way back to Genghis Khan...and they have been on the public purse ever since, from one country to the next.
Forbears of particular interest include Vlad the Impaler, also known as Vlad Dracula from whom the legends of Dracula arose and Elizabeth Bathory.
"The real-life Dracula might not have sucked blood out of his victims’ necks, but he still drank it in a different way: by dipping chunks of bread into buckets of blood drained from the people he killed.
The fifteenth century manuscript The Story of a Bloodthirsty Madman Called Dracula of Wallachia, by Michel Beheim, describes how Vlad III would invite a few guests to his mansion, provide them with a feast, and then have them immediately impaled right there at the dinner table. With the bodies still draped over the stakes, he would leisurely finish his own dinner and then dip his bread into the blood collecting below the bodies."
Dracula's father came to a nasty end and Dracula set about revenging his death by impaling the class from which the death had come about by impaling an entire generation of noblemen. A cruel and inhumane death which could take days to kill a man as the wooden stake was thrust through the body with special care taken not to hit any vital organs before the hapless victim was strung in the air.
Dracula means 'Son of the Dragon'.
Elizabeth Bovary was a psychopath whose favoured pastime was torturing, murdering and bathing in the blood of her victims. Owing to her noble birth she was able to get away with her evil doings for around twenty years before being put into captivity. She was however never brought to trial. Elizabeth is said to have 600 gruesome murders to her name.
Elizabeth has gone down in history as 'The Blood Queen'.
No marks for guessing that the two of them are now rotting in hell.
