Tales From the Otherwood
The Vampire of Medveða
I've always wanted to cover a vampire story..... and here it is!
Set in Hungary, 1725, the villagers of Medveða are being haunted by one of their own who died a sudden death! Keeping one of the undead down is hard enough, what happens when others start being attacked?
The Chat section discusses the two government investigations that brought the "Vampire" to European infamy, it also challenges what we think we know about these blood sucking creatures and where our beliefs came from.
WARNING: Due to the graphic nature of some of the descriptions in this episode, you might want to make sure you are NOT eating whilst listening.
