There once was a Queen who lived in the castle on the hill.
She was the most beautiful queen the country had ever seen. Long black hair framed her face and her white skin highlighted her aristocratic lineage, which went back a long way.
But at the very mention of their Queen, people trembled in fear.
This would certainly have been another story of kings and queens and their disputes at the court if Barbara hadn't been regarded as a witch, a heretic, an alchemist, a murderer, a torturer and lastly as a vampire..
