Episode 18 - The Vampire of Croglin Grange

The fourth and final installment in our Halloween Monsters series ends with a bang: Vampires. We dive into the terrifying tale of a family living in the North-West England village of Croglin Grange. After renting a single story home, they soon came to find that the owners had more than good reason to vacate. The woman of the house soon found herself face to face with a vampiric villain with a taste for flesh and blood. We then take a deep dive into the history of vampires from their Eastern European roots to the importance in Western pop culture. And finally, we discuss our Top 5 Vampire movies of all time. So, get out your garlic and crucifixes. WE’RE GOING TO TRANSYLVANIA!Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only.
