At one time New Englanders actually believed that the undead walked among them in the dark bowers of the night. Feeding upon their kin, these “ghouls” petrified families for more than 100 years. Scores of families exhumed their loved ones looking for the "spectral ghoul" that plagued them. Accounts and actual newspaper articles help tell the story of how people once took desperate measures to rid themselves of what we now know as the New England Vampire.
