Tuberculosis & Vampire Panic

from Buried by the Backroads · host Samantha

Unearth the chilling truth behind America's most bizarre epidemic, the vampire panic that gripped rural New England in the 18th and 19th centuries. Discover how fear, grief, and a lack of understanding fueled a conspiracy that turned families against their own loved ones long after their deaths. Perfect for history buffs, fans of the paranormal, or anyone curious about how folklore masks deeper truths, this episode invites you to see history through a fresh, insightful lens. The past's monsters are less about vampires than about the universal anxieties we all face: death, disease, and the search for answers in a world beyond understanding.SQUARESPACE | Q3 | Free Domain | :15 | EN
