My Vampire Story, all True

That is amazing, and a true shame you didn't get the other stakes.  Are you by chance wearing it on your person in any of those pix of you with your cane that have already been posted?

A friend sent me this auction site...quite an impressive set! What a terrific display piece this is. [that is unless you need it for real vampires, in which case you'd be very well equipped!

Interesting story, WM.

I once had a linen bandage stained with mummy pee.  Your vampire stake is a lot cooler, believe me. 

Maybe it was the embalmers making a statement.

Maybe it was a pregnant mummy and she sneezed

Thanks for posting that Gasport.  I have always wanted to build a kit and now I have an original to pattern mine after.  I already have a friend in the State Police working on my silver bullets, only they will be in 45 long colt for my 1875 Remington revolver.  This is a much more powerful round. 

I plan on trying to find most of the kits contents at antique stores to lend it some historical credibility. 

Pretty cool.
