Franz Ludwig Helreifel: America's First Vampire!


Listen Later

In this episode we present America's first true vampire!  He even admits it, kind of.  Long thought to be just another New York City urban legend, a long-lost newspaper article was discovered with the Headline:  "A Human Bloodsucker".   Ludwig had a unique appearance, a tendency to wander around at night, and a big mouth.  But was Ludwig just  misunderstood?  Put on your Van Helsing cap and decide for yourself, just be warned that while most details of Ludwig's life are well documented, his death is not!
