Not just some catching title to get you to click here. We don't get paid for clicks just so you know.But Archaeologists are a little taken back at their latest discovery unearthed recently. Archaeologists have uncovered medieval corpses buried with an iron stake to stop them joining the undead.
These are the 6th and 7th vampires found in the past 2 years. The so-called 'vampire graves' contain skeletons which all have an iron rod impaled through their bodies where their heart would have been.
The discovery, made at the ancient temple of Perperion, south-east of the Bulgarian capital Sofia, is further evidence that people really did believe that vampires could rise from the dead if they were not buried properly.
In the 13th and 14th centuries, many Eastern Europeans held the belief that vampires were real, causing mass hysteria when people suspected someone of being one of the blood-sucking creatures. Scores of people were killed because they were thought to be vampires, similar to witch-hunts elsewhere in Europe and North America. However it may be possible that some towns had a ritual of hammering a stake into dead people's hearts to make sure they did not join the undead, even if there was no suspicion of them being a vampire.
