Zsófia Bosnyák

Born 1609. After her second husband's affair, Bosnyák donated even more than before to the poor and at nights, she went to pray in the chapel. According to a legend, she had a vision in which the virgin mary appeared and warned her to pray.

Bosnyák died at the age of 35 and was buried in the castle chapel.

Her final tomb became a place of pilgrimage Every year on assumption (15 August), many people from the neighborhood came to visit her glass-covered coffin. It was regarded as a miracle that the body remained preserved even into modern times.

On April 1, 2009, a 31-year-old mentally disturbed man from nearby town of Zillina' broke the glass cover of the coffin and lit the mummy on fire after entering the church with a key obtained from a nearby confectioner shop. The mummy was burned to cinders within minutes. The man, who was thought to be suffering from schizophrenia, was sent to a psychiatric clinic. He claimed that Bosnyák was a vampire, and came to haunt him at night.
