PROTECTION AGAINST VAMPIRES

By: Shyan Chapman 01-05-2002

For protection against Vampires, people slept with silver knifes under their pillows and under crib mattresses. They hung silver crosses above their beds. They would hang wreaths of Garlic on windows and doors and even made necklaces out of them to wear. They would rub windows, doors, and even farm animals with Garlic in hopes they would not get attacked. People began to eat a lot of Garlic and have it with every meal. People carried Wolfsbane, (herb) in their pockets and they kept everything well locked up. It got so bad that people even took turns taking watch over the house while people slept.
