A Vision of Vampires & Blood-Drinking Cults

The guests are all settled and filled with dread, while Visions of Vampires dance in their heads! Join us tonight as your haunting host, Miranda Merrick leads you astray to meet some “blood enthusiasts” of olden times. We’ll find some of the first famous vampires and hear how they were stopped, then we’ll weigh up our options for joining a nice, friendly blood-drinking cult. Such a full evening… Our cup runneth over. Welcome Dear Guest!
