Tainted Love: Women in Horror Anthology launched in February 2021 and features Mandy’s story “My Lady Báthory.”
“My Lady Báthory” is a queer romantic historical horror story following a young lady named Mariska, who is unfortunate enough to find herself at the finishing school of the notorious serial killer and sadist Countess Báthory.
Read by Dusk included this in their review of the anthology: “My Lady Báthory by Mandy Burkhead is a take on the real-life horror of Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Báthory de Ecsed who reportedly murdered more than 600 young women in the 1600s. This beautifully written tale is seen through the eyes of her victims where they fight not just to survive but to have the freedom to be who they really are.”
The anthology can be purchased through Amazon.
