 EPISODE BEING DISCUSSED: https://weirddarkness.com/JureGrando

TEASE: The Weird After Dark hosts explore Europe's first documented vampire who knocked on doors for sixteen years promising death, violated his widow nightly, and when villagers finally opened his coffin in 1672, he was perfectly preserved with tears streaming down his face—screaming as they sawed through his neck. But the cosmic horror deepens when they examine our moon's 'impossible perfection': positioned exactly 1/400th the distance from Earth as the sun while being exactly 1/400th its size, creating the precise conditions for life—leading to mind-bending theories that future humans traveled back 4.6 billion years to build it, or that it was deliberately placed there by intelligent design.
SYNOPSIS: The Weird After Dark hosts dissect Darren Marlar's latest episode spanning centuries of paranormal phenomena, beginning with Jure Grando, Europe's first documented vampire case from 1656 Kringa, Croatia. The discussion examines two conflicting origin stories: either Grando was a stonemason buried alive after defying the monks' "jus primae noctis" custom (right of first night with newlyweds), or he was already a strigon sorcerer practicing blood rites before death. For sixteen years, Grando's knocking on doors signaled imminent death for households, while he violated his widow nightly until villagers finally opened his coffin in 1672, finding him perfectly preserved with a scornful grin, crying tears when confronted with a cross, immune to hawthorn stakes, and screaming as they sawed through his neck. The episode explores Black Shuck, the demon dog of English folklore whose origins may trace to Norse protective hounds that Christianity transformed into a devilish omen, responsible for killing two parishioners in Bungay Church in 1577. The hosts analyze the 1872 "Bermondsey Ghost" haunting in London that terrorized a family with flying objects and mysterious knocking, ultimately revealed to be 13-year-old servant girl Eliza Rose using hidden threads to manipulate objects—a case exposing Victorian-era child labor abuse rather than supernatural activity. The discussion shifts to David Stephens' 1975 Maine UFO abduction by four-and-a-half-foot tall "mushroom-headed" beings with webbed fingers who conducted clinical examinations and communicated telepathically, followed by witnessing two UFOs emerge from Trip Pond in a stair-step pattern. The episode concludes with the moon's "impossible perfection"—being exactly 1/400th the size of the sun and positioned exactly 1/400th the distance away, creating perfect solar eclipses and tidal effects that make Earth habitable, leading to theories ranging from Christopher Knight and Alan Butler's time-traveling future humans building the moon, to biblical creation accounts suggesting purposeful intelligent design rather than cosmic accident.
