Archaeologists have unearthed what they believe to be a vampire burial site in Bulgaria.

The so-called 'vampire graves' contain skeletons which all have an iron rod impaled through their bodies where their heart would have been.

The discovery, made at the ancient temple of Perperion, south-east of the Bulgarian capital Sofia, is further evidence that people really did believe that vampires could rise from the dead if they were not buried properly.
