Here are four tales ofvampires. TheBuckinghamshire Vampire In 1196 avampire traversed the Buckinghamshire area of England. The tale is chronicledin Historia Rerum Anglicarum. The writer of the myth is afriar named William of Newburgh. A vampire, which was the apparition of afreshly deceased man, assaulted his prey at nightfall. He was a customaryvampire; one who slept each day in a grave at the local burial ground. When thesun set the vampire would rise and attack his widow while she was asleep. It iscommon in vampire tales for vampires to attack their past family members. Even though he didn’t slay his widow, eachevening he returned to her bed chamber and assailed and bullied her. The widowsought out family members to stay with her and help keep her awake after dark.The vampire then started attacking the other family members in the house.Before long, the complete hamlet was terrified of going to sleep. The vampire’sburial grave was exhumed by the local villagers. The corpse hadn’t decayed andwas in almost fresh condition. The townspeople reburied the corpse. On thechest of the body they placed a holy scapula. The vampire never rose from thegrave from that day forward. TheFolktale of the Vampire of Berwick In a secondstory of William of Newburgh’s Historia Rerum Anglicarum, anaffluent man who lived in the hamlet of Berwick grew sick and died of plaguenear the border of Scotland and England. After the man's death he was seenwandering the streets each night. The dogs of the village would bark deep intothe night while the vampire was meandering. The villagers, who were afraid thatplague might spread through the town due to the vampire’s presence, exhumed thebody, dismembered it, and set it on fire. The vampire was never seen roving thevillage after sunset after that. However, plague still infected the village andit was attributed to the idle spiritual presence of the vampire. TheVampire Folktale of Arnold Paole In thislegendary Austrian folktale, a Serbian brigand named Arnold was the victim of avampire attack during the course of a night time walk in a cemetery. Arnoldlocated the vampire’s grave and beheaded the monster with a shovel. The vampirecurse was a legend that made the killer of a vampire turn into a vampirethemselves. In an attempt to stop the curse, Arnold ate some of the dirt aroundthe grave. Arnold would live an average life for several more years. Quite a while later Arnold died from a fall inwhich he broke his neck. Subsequent to his funeral his apparition wasdiscovered sneaking around the village late in the evening. Several villagerswere discovered dead after dawn, all drained of blood. The bald speculation wasthat Arnold had fallen prey to the vampire curse. The Austrian army wascommanded to look into the situation. They dug up the body and were appalled bywhat they discovered. The corpse had not decayed and there was sparkling bloodseeping from the mouth, nose, and eyes. The fingernails had grown and new skinhad grown also.  The townspeoplepounded a stake through the heart of the corpse. The remains began bleedingfrom the injury and the carcass began groaning in distress. The vampire wasnever seen again. TheVampire Folktale of Peter Plogojowitz This examplewas one of the most hair-raising and well documented cases of vampire mania.The tale is found in Imperial Provisor Frombald, penned byan Austrian bureaucrat who witnessed the vampire meanderings of Peter Plogojowitz. In 1725 PeterPlogojowitz, a Serbian farmer, lived in a town namedKisilova. Immediately after Plogojowitz’s death, at leastnine additional townsfolk perished. They died gradually and on their death bedsthey alleged that Plogojowitz was strangling and attacking them during thenight. The townsfolkdug up the corpse and examined it for signs of vampirism. They found out thatthe remains had not decomposed, that the hair and nails had grown, and that abeard had grown. Blood was found in the mouth of the corpse. The townspeoplestaked the corpse through the heart. Blood began spraying from the nose andears. Fearful that the vampire would rise again, the townsfolk burned the body. Conclusion Vampire storiesshare very common themes. When a character dies and rises as a vampire, thevampire most of the time attacks former family members first. Just before dawnthe vampire goes back to its coffin to seek protection until the next evening.When the carcass is exhumed it doesn't contain signs of decay. After the bodyis staked through the heart or destroyed by fire, the vampire is never seenagain.
