In this episode, Austin and Fernando discuss the horrifying Great New England Vampire Panic!
Back in the late 1700s, New England experienced a wave of terror spread throughout their communities. On the surface, it appeared that family members were simply getting sick and unfortunately succumbing to disease. However, as New Englanders began to connect the dots, they came to the conclusion that they were being preyed upon by a scourge of vampires!
