Countess Wandessa (Werewolf vs the Vampire Woman)

Countess Wandessa (Patty Shepard) is the main villainess in the 1971 Spanish Horror film, "Werewolf vs the Vampire Woman".
The film shows two women achaeologists, Elvira (Gaby Fuchs) and Genevieve Bennett (Barbara Capell), who are interested in finding the grave of a famously evil vampire, Countess Wandessa. Wandessa was a medieval murderess and possible vampire. She was buried in a forest near Waldemar's Castle. They are joined by Waldemar Daninsky (Paul Naschy), a Count, who wants to get into the grave to find a holy relic, the Silver Cross and/or Silver Dagger. Waldemar we find, is a werewolf who can't control his transformations.
In the process of digging up the grave, one of the girls is injured, and a tiny bit of her blood drops onto Wandessa's rotten corpse.
Genevieve gets turned into a vampire by Wandessa, and Elvira falls in love with Waldemar. Wandessa take Elvira to sacrifice her in a satanic ritual in the Walpurgis night and free Satan to the living world.
Wandessa and Waldemar eventually have a fantastic fight that takes place in an amphitheater. Waldemar sticks a cross into the one exit so that the vampire can't run away from the fight. After a fight, Waldemar in his werewolf form, fatally bites her throat, killing her. When Wandessa finally dies, her clothes settle to the ground in a heap with her rotting corpse inside them, and maggots crawl all over her.

In her mortal life, Wandesa had her hair tied back and dressed in the traditional manner of the counts of her time. She occasionally had a dagger and a horn to perform human sacrifices to Satan and drink blood respectively. 
In her later life as a resurrected vampire, Wandesa wore all-black medieval burial clothes, complete with a veil. Apparently she doesn't wear anything under her black burial dress. She had a silver ring on her left hand, long loose hair, pale skin, and she was always barefoot.
