400-year old ‘vampire’ buried with padlock on foot, sickle across neck uncovered in Poland

Archaeologists in Poland discovered a 400-year-old woman’s remains, believed to be a ‘vampire,’ with a sickle across her neck and a padlock on her toe to prevent resurrection. Named ‘Zosia,’ she was of high social status, evidenced by her gold-threaded silk headdress. The facial reconstruction aims to restore her dignity amidst medieval superstitions.
