You’re right - it was only those who died in the winter. Mercy died in January so she was kept in here awaiting burial until the ground thawed.

Vampires in Rhode Island | This is the crypt that Mercy Brown, often referred to as "America's Last Vampire", was kept in. The Mercy Brown Vampire Incident occurred in Exeter, Rhode Island in 1892. It is one of the best documented cases of the exhumation of a corpse in order to perform rituals to banish an undead manifestation. The incident was part of the wider New England vampire panic, which was a reaction to an outbreak of tuberculosis.

While Mercy gets all the attention in the tale, the legend is really about a family being devastated by the effects of tuberculosis, and a grieving father caving to local pressures.

I made a quick video on what happened here if you wanna be entertained AND educated wow what a deal.

You joke about that but they have an army surplus humvee now and pulled up to the stop and shop with super soakers filled with lukewarm Dels. I can put up w them making meme music but giving my car a sugar shellack is where I draw the line.
