Sarah Tillinghast will usually spend her day on a graveyard of a
revolutionary army and brought a book of poetry. There she will sit on the ground and read for
long hours. One day, Sarah went home and
said she was feeling ill. She decided to
go straight to the bed and rest, after a few weeks or so, Sarah died due to the
unknown disease.
They were not yet able to recuperate on the loss of Sarah, when one day
James woke up looking anaemic and said that Sarah came to him last night and
sat on his chest. The parents were quick
to conclude that James was only hallucinating and it is their son’s way to deal
with the loss of a loved one. But the
next morning James was looking paler and started to show difficulty in
breathing. Soon after, James also died.
But that was just the beginning, soon after two of their siblings also
died. They also complained the same
thing that their sister Sarah is visiting them.
Their parents started to get worried about the fact that this is a clear
sign of vampirism and that Sarah might be draining the life of her siblings and
feared that if they do not do something about this, the death on their family
will just continue. The rumours about
the random death in the Tillinghast family spread all over town. Then suddenly, all the deaths on the village
were blamed to Sarah Tillinghast. The
Mother of the Tillinghast, Honour, also became sick. Snuffy, the father could not take it
anymore. He asked Caleb to accompany him
on the cemetery. They brought a knife
and an oil lamp determined to put an end to this curse.
The two men dug up the grave of Sarah and opened them. They were surprised to see that her corpse is
perfectly preserved despite of the fact that 18 months has already passed since
her death. Snuffy Tillinghast took her
daughter’s heart and burned it. They
said that fresh blood gushed out of the wound of Sarah.
Surprisingly Honour was able to
regain her full strength and recover from that sickness. There were no more deaths attributed to Sarah
after that day.
