An internet search on the word will draw over 11 million hits – such is the world-wide, frenzied interest in the subject.Bram Stoker’s novel ‘Dracula’ first saw the light of day (or the dead of night) in 1897, but vampire mythology had frightened the wits out of people for centuries before then.Almost all vampire stories are fictional and even the ones which claim to be genuine are so lacking in factual detail that they are viewed ‘tongue in cheek’.‘The Vampire of The Villas’ on the other hand, is absolutely true – I know because I was there.This short story is my account of what took place on the evening of Friday 24th November 1972 when, as a young British police officer, I was sent to investigate the disappearance of Demetrious Mykiciura, a 67 years old Polish immigrant.The avenue of dark and dilapidated Victorian mansions where Mykiciura lived – The Villas, Stoke on Trent in the heart of industrial England, could not have been a more fitting setting for the weird and disturbing tale which unfolded.The story is the only known recorded death in the UK to have been directly and legally attributed to a belief in vampires.Contains photographs of actual locations and an original police photograph of the corpse.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
