The grave of a vampire?
Gravestone of a vampire? St Andrew's Church, Dent in the Yorkshire Dales, Cumbria.
Born in 1621, George Hodgson created a stir around Dent by living to the ripe old age of 94. The villagers had never known the like before and assumed that George was a vampire, especially as he had managed to retain his two prominent canine teeth! Upon death, he was buried in a quiet corner of the churchyard, but when unexplained deaths started to occur and his ghost was seen, George was dug up and reburied by the church porch with a stake through his heart. .
