As if the Taliban wasn't bad enough...
While reading job-related news articles at work today, I stumbled across this alleged tale of vampires in Afghanistan. A reporter from Oregon's KPTV FOX-12 and Salem-News.com picked up the tale while on assignment with our troops last winter.
I poked around to see if I could find any other mentions of such a story or folk tale. Didn't turn up much in a brief Googling, but apparently, the folk legend has made it into a comic and a pending movie. Strangely, I don't specifically recall any of the comic or movie addicts on my f-list mentioning either one (although that could be my swiss cheese brain...).
Anyway, figured I'd submit this for your amusement...
