Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of these traits does the Transylvanian vampire have?

Answer: All of these are correct

The Transylvanian vampire was gaunt, had very long, sharp fingernails, and very foul breath. It also had full, red lips and a pale complexion.
2. What color was a Russian vampire's face said to be?

Answer: Purple

According to folklore, a Russian vampire shared all the traits of the Transylvanian vampire, except the Russian vampire possessed a purple face. Anyone rebelling against the church, or practicing witchcraft, was in danger of becoming a vampire.
3. What was so strange about the way a Bavarian vampire slept?

Answer: It slept with one eye open.

The Bavarian vampire was said to sleep inside its coffin with one eye always open with its thumbs linked.
4. What was so strange about the way a Bulgarian vampire fed?

Answer: It had a pointed tongue with a barb on the end.

The strange thing about the Bulgarian vampire was that it did not have fangs. Instead of fangs, it had a forked tongue with a barb on the end of it.
5. True or False. While we're on a roll with Bulgarian vampires, one way to get rid of this particular fiend is to hire a magician to order it into a bottle and then throw the bottle into the fire.

Answer: True

There are as many ways of getting rid of vampires in folklore as there are different species. There is the tried-and-true method of the mallet and stake, piercing its heart with cold iron, and of course, the rays of the sun is very lethal. There is a method or two that works wonders with each kind--it's just a matter of finding which one is right for your particular vampire--before he gets you!
6. Which vampire threw off its shroud and attacked its victims in the nude?

Answer: Moravian

The Moravian vampire had the bad habit of tearing off its shroud so it could attack in the nude. Which also makes it guilty of being a flasher as well as a blood-sucker.
7. The Albanian vampire had an usual trait concerning what it wore. What was it?

Answer: It wore high heel shoes.

The Albanian vampire always wore high heel shoes. One legend says that it carried its native soil in its heels, but maybe it just liked to wear high heels.
8. According to Romanian folklore, on what day of the year were vampires the most active?

Answer: On the eve of St. George's Day

On the eve of St. George's Day (April 22 by the Julian calendar or May 4 by the Gregorian calendar) both vampires and witches were at their most active.
9. True or False. In Surinam, there is a species of female vampire that feeds only off of the left thumb of its victims.

Answer: False

This species is called Axeman and it is always female. She enters dwellings in the shape of a bat, finds an uncovered foot, and feeds off of the victim's big toe. This was a very reason to wear socks to bed. In the Axeman's case, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure"---simply prop a broom across the doorway, and she can't get in.
10. Which of these is not a characteristic of a Serbian vampire?

Answer: Had hooks instead of feet

Serbian vampires (species Mulo) appeared as either normal people wearing white clothes, or they could take the shape of a sheep or a horse. They were active both by night and by day. To destroy this vampire, cut off its toes or drive a nail through its neck. I hope you enjoyed my trip through the land of the Undead.
