Tuberculosis or Vampires?!: Deadly Disease or Killer Creatures?

Prepare for chills as we venture into the spine-tingling 19th-century vampire panic, focusing on the eerie Mercy Brown incident in Rhode Island. Discover the tragic tale of the Brown family, who were devastated by tuberculosis, and the macabre rituals that emerged from fear and superstition. We detail how Mercy’s case might have influenced Bram Stoker’s "Dracula" and discuss the strange yet significant role of emojis in our storytelling.
