This week, Syd and Jess are here to tell you the bizarre stories of a recently discovered 17th century grave, a 2012 man who couldn't stop drinking his own blood, and the "Bloody" Countess, Elizabeth Báthory de Ecsed. What do these three have in common? They were all accused of being vampires! While this may seem way out of left field, clinical vampirism is a real thing (Renfield's Syndrome) and we're here to tell you all about it.
