My sister has always claimed I'm a vampire.

She likes to regale of the time she came into my room, when I was on winter break from university and found me sitting in the dark with the window wide open, reading a book on moral philosophy.
I would say bull droppings to that!!! 😛

I read Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' to my 11-year old grandson, he was fascinated and I was too. He needed me to go and see if there was garlic in the house.

I could see a small child like an 11-year old thinking there may be Vampires!

Yes, the book is very convincing. There are many tourists going to Transylvania to see Dracula's castle.

Nevertheless, a true account.

For years, as a child, I would pull the sheet covers up high at night to protect my neck from vampires.

(Apparently, I believed vampire fangs couldn't penetrate fabric).

Two entirely different stories.

(I clearly stated in the first account that I was on winter break from university).

That is quite possible, but of course I'd have to take your word on that, which I find hard to do! 😛
