Show Notes
The belief in vampires has been around for centuries - long before we had the term. The fear of the dead rising up from their graves and wreaking havoc on our communities has been something that societies put quite a bit of thought into probably since the beginning of humankind. We have evidence dating back thousands of years that the undead terrorized our population in one way or another. Though the term has changed, as have the descriptions and ways of dealing with them, vampires still exist today. They’re in our literature and film, they’re a part of most cultures, and some even believe that the supernatural beings still walk among us. So today I wanted to take some time and discuss what the vampire is, what it means and has meant to the people of the world for thousands of years, and tell some of the most famous stories of real-life vampires.

I feel like attempting to contact the spirits of the dead at least once is like a rite of passage for all who would have put themselves in the category of ‘spooky.’ And just as we’ve said so many times on this podcast, you never know what’s waiting for you in the darkness when you’re reaching out. Today, I’ve brought you several stories from our listeners who took a chance with a ouija board and made contact with something much darker than they intended!
