Romania must be a dark, dark country. There are also several stories here on FR regarding vampires in Romania. Some villagers ate the hearts of their dead so that they wouldn't come back to haunt them (or something like that).

From "Molvania: A Land Untouched by Modern Dentistry": (Hardie Grant Books, 2003:
p.15: "Today Molvania is a country caught between the old world and the new, and the contrasts are many. It has provisional NATO membership and high IMF ratings, but is yet to declare witch-burning an indictable offense"
p.154: "Like most large Molvanian towns, the centre of Jzerbo is dominated by an impressive cathedral, dedicated to the city's protector, Saint Cvorbcek. The cathedral is open to the public each morning from 8am and it's worth getting there early as the place can get rather crowded with tourists. (Remember - no singlets, sandals or nipple-rings). At the front of the church's entrance you will often see a toothless beggar hissing profanities at passers-by. He is the local bishop."
