Among the Dirt and Trees

Vampires, Grave robbing, and Magical Duals: The Crimes of Highgate Cemetery


Listen Later

In 1967, two girls claimed to see the dead rising from their graves in Highgate Cemetery, and the people of London began to change.
By 1970, a full-blown obsession with the local vampire rumors broke out, egged on by the publications of two enemy magicians who each swore to know more about the vampire threat plaguing the area.
When their plan to hunt down the vampire once and for all was aired on tv on Friday the 13th, a mob broke out, with people rushing to the cemetery to stop the vampire menace themselves.
The police were overrun, and the bodies of several people were desecrated–but that was only the beginning of the story for magicians Sean Manchester and David Farrant.
