This is a shocking story that saw families digging up their dead relatives, believing them to be vampires. What makes it all the more shocking, is that it was as recent as 1892. Join Anthony and Maddy to find out what was really going on in this sleepy town in New England, where the fear of what the dead might do caused local people to do barbaric things to their own family.
