:02:05
to roam the countryside
:02:07
and seek for victims to satisfy their need,
:02:12
their passion, their thirst for blood.

savoring its enjoyment.
:02:25
At other times, to strangle
and exhaust at a single feast.
:02:33
I knew the specter, when satiated,
:02:36
would return to its grave.
:02:39
I also knew that without the shroud,
:02:43
in which it was interred
to cloak its festering body,
:02:48
there could be no night of rest
for any vampire.
