Serbian vampire hunters rammed a wooden stake through the heart of former dictator Slobodan Milosevic to stop him 'returning from the dead'.
Miroslav Milosevic, no relation to the former president, gave himself up to police who have launched an investigation.
He claimed he and his fellow vampire hunters acted to stop the former dictator returning from the dead to haunt the country.
Milosevic's Socialist Party of Serbia, which led the country to civil war and oversaw the break up of the former Yugoslavia, condemned the desecration of the grave in the eastern town of Pozarevac.
The vampire hunters told police the three-foot-long wooden steak had been driven into the ground and through the late president's heart.
Slobodan Milosevic died on March 11, 2006, while on trial before a UN war crimes tribunal for his role in the 1990s break-up of the former Yugoslavia.
Slobodan Milosevic's daughter-in-law Milica Gajic said she planned to sue the vampire hunters and accused the police of failing to protect the grave properly.
Whew! One less thing to worry about I guess. ;)
Yeah, I re-read this thing about 4 times, certain that I was misunderstanding it.
You can't make this stuff up!
I prefer it to have just a bit of charcoal flavor, myself.
That isn't enough you have to remove the head.
That's one tough sirloin!
So....many....Buffy....jokes....
Head...might...explode
Did they have a fiber optic camera to put into the grave to make sure they hit the target, or are they just counting on blind aim to lead them to the heart? They might have just staked his spleen.
I think Milica is worried the end of the vampier line will take her with it.
Weird!
or how about the guy with "chewing gum and wires stuck up his butt in Los Angeles LAX airport yesterday? Yea, he was crazy ... sure...but I wonder if that "gum" was really C4
Another odd thing:
It was obviously a Westerner who did this. It was Dracula* who did the staking, and the Balkan people consider him a hero.

Lunatics.
The stake was only 3 feet long, yet it went through his heart? They bury 'em awfully shallow over there.
Shucks, I was sure I'd see better jokes on this thread... :(
