Did you know that England has one of the oldest recorded vampire legends—predating Dracula by centuries? In this episode of The Lorekeepers Library, we uncover the terrifying true story of the Alnwick Vampire, a nobleman whose restless corpse struck fear into the hearts of villagers. Recorded in the 12th century by historian William of Newburgh, this chilling tale tells of a bloated, blood-dripping corpse and the desperate exorcism that followed.

But was this undead horror real, or was it a medieval misunderstanding fueled by superstition and disease? We dive deep into Alnwick Castle’s dark history, documented ghost sightings, and the eerie events that still haunt this fortress today.

👀 WATCH UNTIL THE END to uncover the truth behind the legend—and decide for yourself whether the Alnwick Vampire was fact or fear-fueled fiction!
