The Mystery Of The Vampire Skeletons Buried In Ireland | Vampire Skeletons | Timeline

In summer 2007, at a site in Ireland, archaeologists were uncovering layers of graves. They were astonished to find two skeletons with large stones lodged in their jaws. This was exceptional; all the other skeletons in the cemetery had been normal Christian burials.
The archaeologists believe that the skeletons were treated as if they were ‘revenants’ - individuals who might return from the dead to prey on the living. The film attempts to discover who these people were, how they died, and when the stones were forced into their jaws. It’s a fascinating journey first into the medieval mind, and back to our earliest fears of the undead.
And we come up to date, with an interview with a Romanian villager who saw his neighbours cutting the heart out of a corpse that they believed to be a vampire.

    Just image. Some poor unlucky guy fell hitting his head and went unconscious. Quack doctors said he died and buried him. He woke up later and clawed his way out of his grave. He was happy to be alive. However, villagers thought he was a revenant and killed him for real. That type of thing could cause all these rumors of undead running around.

    There might be another, more horrible explanation for this. In the 17th century (I believe) the magistrate of Edinburgh decided to dig up and open all graves, out of a suspicion that people had been buried alive. To their horror, they discovered that a large portion of the dead - I believe one third - were alive after the burial. They were found in distorted positions, or lying on their faces, and some coffins had scratch marks where the people had desperatedly tried to get out. After that, it was decreed that there must be a death watch of several days, during which the person must be observed, and only when there was no sign of life, he or she could be buried. That's the explanation behind the death watch.

    I'm not sure if time travelers are real or not but when I was like 4-5 years old, my father had an accident and went to this old Hmong medicine man for help. His wife had killed some chicken for us to eat. Within the week that we were there, my father and the medicine man were very enjoy of eachother's company and he told my father about the future about our people. All of the Vietnam war incident had came as said, but the most amazing thing that I remember was that he said in the future people would talk to and see eachother with a handheld mirror-like device like they are so closed together like us now together, but in reality, they are so far away from eachother, llike the other side of the world. Just like our cellular phones today. Still amazing to me because during that time the medicine man was holding me in his arms and claimed and told my father that they might not see it because of their age but for sure I'll see it.

    My roots are from Eastern Europe, and many of these customs I have seen firsthand. In my village, before the funeral, there is some cloth pinned on the right shoulder with very long needle, then there is one nail going trough the hearth, and one nail trough the left heel. In some other places, deceased is nailed with a wooden stick trough his hearth and rooster is slaughteret on the place and coffin is sprinkled with rooster's blood. But there are funny stories about vampires. In one case, young man died and left behind woman and two children. After 40 days, her dead husband started to come in her room every night She complained to her father in law. He said he will go with her that night and wait for that vampire. With a bat. When vampire entered the room old man landed hit in direction of his face, vampire quickly run away. Next day their neighbor had broken nose.

    The salem witch trials documentary i watched when i was 16 was sooo awesome. It told how a farmer harvesting his wheat didn’t notice or care or understand the patch infected with ergot fungus. Ergot was used to derive lsd. The baker bought some wheat and baked some bread. Some unfortunate few who ate the bread started hallucinating. It was blamed on witchcraft. Even other people who was having the same symptoms were judged to be witches via a witch cake. Woman who’s tripping is forced to urinate on loaf of bread, so bread infected with ergot, biproducts in bloodstream from ergot, and she was free to go if dog showed no symptoms. Most of the poor dogs ran in circles and chew on rocks until they were toothless. Sad deal all around.

    From my understanding, I've only really studied about books, is that sometimes gloves do more harm than good. Since you can't manipulate the object as well as you can with just your hands because of the thickness of the gloves. Which could also risk damaging the object, but then again this is only in regards to books I'm not so sure about other objects.

    0:39: 🧛 Recent discoveries of violently deformed skeletons in Ireland shed light on our ancient fear of vampires and the undead. 6:45: 🧱 The Kilteasheen skeletons found in Ireland were buried violently with large rocks in their mouths, possibly to prevent them from returning from the dead. 12:41: 🧩 The Kilteasheen burials were intentional and deviant, with stones forcefully placed in the mouths to prevent souls from reentering the bodies. 17:02: 💀 In medieval times, the belief in revenants, or the undead, was widespread and terrifying. 22:51: 💀 The belief in vampires and undead has persisted throughout history, with reports of vampire sightings causing fear and fascination across Europe. 28:26: 🧛 The vampire myth originated in Eastern Europe and was popularized in literature, leading to real-life rituals and beliefs in Romania. 36:15: 💀 The fear of the undead has persisted for at least a thousand years, with evidence of deviant burials in Ireland dating back to the 8th-9th century. 42:01: 🧛‍♂ Deviant burials in medieval Ireland, such as stone in mouth skeletons, reveal a deep-rooted fear and belief in the supernatural.

    The only thing I'd ever seen and heard of in terms of vampires that was truly interesting is when a Navy Seal was placed on a mission with others like him and they raided a facility underground where one of his fellow spec ops people was bitten by a woman that he described as looking like a vampire. Teeth and all. It greatly disturbed him and his fellow soldiers. There were others there that appeared half human and half animal. The Seal that spoke of this said that there is nothing that has ever scared him until that day, that mission. He was told to go and kill everything in sight as were the others. If what he says was even half true, then this world is more fkd up than I thought. Update: I'll try to find the vid saved in an old phone of mine. I just haven't gotten around to it. Many are asking me for it. Also one thing to add to the story is seen is that the Seal mentioned he and the others killed the "lab" workers as well that were present.

    My son who was 8-9 years old at the time of his encounter was lying in his bed while my wife and I were across the hall in our bed about to go to sleep . I was just about to fall asleep when I heard the most terrifying blood curdling scream coming from my sons room. I immediately jumped out of bed and ran into his room where I saw my son up against his headboard shaking and as pale as a white sheet. I asked him what happened and he said he saw a small skeleton figure walking next to his bed coming at him. At first I was a bit suspicious of his claim until it happened again a few nights later and it was the same exact claim he made prior. Then weird things started happening around the house and we got out of there as quick as we could. He swears up and down to this day that little skeleton figure was coming for him. I could make a detailed video over his claims but I’m sure no one would care lol

    Modern man believes he is so knowledgeable and more advanced than all who came before us. This is all due to the fallacious historical accounts,mostly based on vague and speculative imaginations,that are repeatedly taught and constantly propagated,whiles presuming them to be factual. The Smithsonians, National Geography,Archeological Institutions,etc., All what they convey to the world are based on pure make-believe,as none of what they claim is of a real life experience or existence. Modern man is able to recount how the oceans came into existence,by just analysing a drop of sea water in their labs. But the thing is,they are totally incapable of making the sea,or whatever. These all-knowing folks would have really made the sea if they could,believe me. The vain-glorious loves to play God !

In the Testament of one of the 12 sons of Jacob,also known as Israel,he writes about tunnels of Cappadocia,today's Turkey,where vampires dwell. This happened in the Middle Ages. The history of vampires' is as old as creation,when demonic creatures roamed the earth. Adam the first formed man,was said to have engendered siblings with female demons. But Lilith is noted to be the first human vampire,when she sojourned in The Land of Nod after refusing to be in couple with Adam. Modern man pretends as if the world only began when the liar Columbus imagined he has arrived in America. Because you can't discover a place, when people are already living there, or can you ?

Some believe if the death was sudden and violent they might return and not even know that they had died! I can’t imagine how awful it is to have lost a loved one to such sudden and horrific violence and then have the terror that they would return as a nightmarish monster seeking revenge on the living! It’s heartbreaking to think about someone mourning their loved one, and also being terrified of them at the same time!

To Identify the First family it is important to count their teeth which total to 36 and not 32. They did not drink human blood they had sheep blood because they suffered from skin sensitivity from the sun. Yes they had long canines but that was for them to feed directly on fresh kills (sheep only). They had many advantages like very strong intuition/ can see clearly in the night/ climb on their toes. and of course always had O+ blood with very high hemoglobin. Their wounds and bones would heal ten times faster than normal humans.

The pallbearers accidentally dropped the casket, causing him to fall out and wake up. He lived for another while, before dying from the same circumstances again. He stayed dead the second time, and his family struggled to accept it, hoping he could still be alive like he was the first time. I'll try to find it, but it might be a while. It happened before 2011, that's when I read the book.

    She doesn't have to manually piece the skull back together. You 3D scan each fragment then let an AI run through all the iterations to see where each piece fits. The skull would be recreated in virtual space and if desired the researchers can use the data to do a physical restoration or just use a 3D printer to get a physical model.
