Borrini's attempt to give earthly explainations of the existence of vampires is pitiful and offensive! Maybe we should send somebody to show him things as they really are...
Coltiviamo per tutti un rancore
che ha l'odore del sangue rappreso
ciò che allora chiamammo dolore
è soltanto un discorso sospeso
Could recycle this superstitious behavior in my campaign.

I've read about the idea of vampires as plague-carriers in folklore (with anecdotal evidence in someone's journal, a priest who sent back a report, etc.), but this is the first time I've seen it in the archaeological record. Now that's cool.
I'd be suprised if the body farm hasn't already tested or observed that phenomenon, but I'm not sure if they have places set for bodies to decay in clothing. They probably do, but yeah
to show him things as they really are...
