The Wharram Percy “Revenant” Burials

Vampire burials are found across Europe and raise many questions as to how people in the medieval age viewed death and its connection to life. It wasn’t enough to be dead because it wasn’t the end; after all, you could return as a revenant or worse…as a vampire.

What Does The Wharram Percy Burial Mean

This vampire burial is one of the most fascinating and disturbing medieval discoveries in Britain to date. The site at Wharram Percy revealed strong archaeological evidence that medieval villagers believed that some of the dead could rise from their graves as vampires, basically, undead corpses that physically returned to harm the living.

The villagers took extreme steps to stop it.

The Medieval Vampire Burial In Bulgaria

Let’s talk about the so-called “vampire burials” found in 2004 in Bulgaria. Let’s talk about their real archeological finds, and not internet creepypasta.

What Happened In The 00s In Bulgaria?

It was in 2004 that archeologists uncovered medieval skeletons in Sozopol, a coastal town on the Black Sea. The corpses dated roughly to the 13th-14th century.

But why does it matter so much, and why is it called a “vampire burial”? Well, for once, the skeletons had iron rods driven through their chests.

The World’s First Vampire Was From Croatia And His Name Was Jure “Grando” Alilović

Vampires are a fascinating subject, and their presence in history goes back millennia. But who was the first vampire ever to exist? Who knows? But the first documented one came from Croatia, and his name was Jure “Grando” Alilović from Kringa.

Where And What Is Croatia?

The Republic of Croatia is located in Southeastern and Central Europe. Part of the Balkans, Croatia shares robust historical ties with the Hasburg Monarchy, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and also has Roman Catholic traditions.

Croatia is on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. To the northwest, it touches Slovenia, Hungary to the northeast, to the east, it touches Serbia, and to the southeast, it touches Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as Montenegro, and to the west, it shares a maritime border with Italy.

The OCD Vampire Tarot Reader: A Dark Journey into the Unknown

In a world teeming with the mundane and the ordinary, there exists a realm for those who dare to embrace the darkness. A world where the mysteries of the unknown can be unlocked through the art of tarot reading.

But not just any tarot reading, this is a journey led by the OCD Vampire, a reader who doesn’t merely pull cards, but channels the essence of the vampire itself.

For those who believe in the power of the night, the pull of the moon, and the call of the paranormal, my tarot readings offer more than just insight, they are a portal to a world of hidden truths, where the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary.

How I Became a Vampire and a Vampirologist: A Gothic Journey from Porphyria to Romania

There are two things I have always been certain of: I was never meant for the daylight, and I was born to know the vampire.

While vampires in the True Blood sense don’t necessarily exist, vampirologists do, and I am proud to be both: a vampire in spirit and a vampirologist in title.

One is about who I am, and the other is about why I am. But how, you might ask, can someone be both the monster and the scholar? Let me take you to the shadows where this all began.

An Introduction To What Does It Mean To Me To Be A Vampire

Most people know little about vampires beyond what Hollywood has portrayed them. But what if I told you that, in many ways, I am a vampire? Come read my story.

Come Peek Into My Vampirish Diary

This article is the first of many I planned to explain and dive into the world of vampires. There are so many fields, categories, genres, and lifestyles related to millennia-old and worldwide known creatures that one article wouldn’t cover it.

However, there is also more to know as to why I wanted to be the one exploring the subject. My passion for vampires goes back to my toddler years, but there is more to it. Not only do I relate to the vampire creature, but I am also a certified vampirologist.

The Odd Origin of Vampires In History

Vampires have been part of our folklore for hundreds of years. The belief in a being that subsists on blood has timelessly fascinated us. But where did vampires come from? Let’s explore the odd origins of vampires in history.

The First Origin Of The Bite

The odd origin of vampires in history—let’s dig in.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word vampyre, as we know it today, dates back to the eighteenth century. However, the name itself became part of the languages of France and Germany some time before its first appearance in English.

It is also interesting to note that the English language borrowed the term vampyre from France, and possibly from Serbia as well. Many countries across Western Europe had a term, a word, or at least a description that meant vampire.
