And while there are many stories of vampire and vampire hunts all over eropa and the Caribbean one of the best documented vampire stories ever occurred over about a tahun period in and around Dillsboro N.C. from 1788-1789.
In the spring of 1788 a family arrived in the then small mountain community of Dillsboro N.C. Their last name was Alfort and their were rumors that they were descended from royalty. They bought land down oleh the river and built what was then a very nice large colonial home. Mr Alfort opened up a doctors office and pharmacy in rooms in the front of the house and people were at first really happy that a new doctor had arrived in their community. But very quickly two different men who had went to the new doctor to be treated for gout died. Both men had been well liked members of the community and it really angered a lot of people. However in a few months the local minister had made a peace in the community and for a time everything seemed to be fine. However the time of peace was short lived. That fall a young girl child of the Minister was found dead in her tempat tidur with puncture marks to her throat. The Ministers wife swore she had saw a dark form hovering over her daughter and she screamed but it was to late and the child had died.
This caused a huge up roar in the community and the people of the area started to claim a vampire atau a group of vampire was loose in their midst. Many nights groups of men went out and searched but they found nothing. However some men claimed to have seen a large black bat like creature fly over them. A few nights later a young boy ran down the bukit, hill to his grandfathers house and told his grandfather something was up the bukit, hill in his Daddy's house attacking his Mom and Dad. The grandfather summoned other men and they ran to his sons house up the bukit, hill but the man , woman, and two girl children of 3 and 9 were dead with puncture wounds to their necks.
The area was immediately in a uproar and soldiers were called in and they searched the community. oleh February of 1789 things had quieted down when one evening screams were heard and when men arrived they saw a black form of a human run from the house and run down the bukit, hill and into the Alfort house. When the village men went into the house where the screams had come from they found the bodies of a young couple with vicious bite marks to their throats. Almost at once lebih men came and they were told that the murderer had ran down the bukit, hill and into the Alfort house. When the cari party of men got to the Alfort house Mr Alfort refused to let them in. However as soon as the sheriff arrived they dragged Mr Alfort outside and tied him to a tree. When the men entered the house they found some strange things for sure. Their were bedrooms upstairs with beds but it was clear no one slept in them. When the Sheriff and cari party got downstairs they found three caskets and Mrs Alfort dressed all in black was in one of them but very much alive. She hissed and cursed at them when she was pulled from the casket.
Later that night the Sheriff and the villages Minister announced to the crowd outside the Alfort house that the Alfort's and their son were vampires. The Alfort's were hung and then placed back inside the house that night. The house was set on api and was burned to the ground. However the couples 15 tahun old son was never found and he was never seen in the area again. And their were no lebih vampire murders atau unusual murders in the area. Were they really vampire no one will ever know. But something very strange indeed had went on and people at the time berkata that the Alfort's were vampires.
If the Alfort's were not vampire who was the vampire. Because something atau someone was going around killing people and biting them on the neck.

"Britt!" I heard my mom call. Time to visit Aunt Sage. "Coming mom," I answered with a reluctant tone in my voice. Aunt Sage was I sweet lady, I couldn't argue with that.She was a kind heart, but her house smelled of cat food and cookies. Two smells that shouldn't mix. I walked down the hall and to the car. It was just me and mom in our old house. I missed dad. I missed it when I was only 8 years old and he would spin me around. now that he and mom were divorced, I felt lebih vulnerable as ever, as if a chunk of my jantung was in that suitcase that he packed and took to where ever he went with him. I grabbed my berwarna merah muda, merah muda Areopostale bag and headed for mom's brand new Aston Martin. Louisiana, here I come! When we got there, I stepped out of the car. Slosh! Geez, I got mud all over my new Converse's. "Come on! We'll clean anda up!" I heard a familiar voice say. "Aunt Sage!" I screamed as I ran toward her.
