Following a purported vampire attack last Friday eerily reminiscent of an episode of the vampire soap-opera “True Blood,” a Florida woman has been charged with battery after violently biting an elderly man in a wheelchair on his face and arms, said St. Petersburg police.
Milton Ellis, 69, told police he met the alleged vampire, Josephine Smith, 22, on a street in St. Petersburg, Florida. To escape the rain the two decided to move to the nearby porch of a vacant restaurant. Ellis said he fell asleep in his wheelchair and woke up to find Smith on top of him. Ellis told authorities that Smith said, “I’m a vampire. I am going to eat you,” and then began to bite him.
According to reports, the attack left Ellis bloodied, with bites on his arm and lips, before he was able to escape and contact the authorities. Ellis was later treated with stitches at a local hospital and released.
According to St. Petersburg Police spokesman Mike Puetz, after arriving at the scene, officers found Smith bloody and half-naked nearby. Smith claimed she had no memory of what happened and did not identify herself as a vampire to police. Smith is currently held in detention with bail set at $50,000.
They say truth is stranger than fiction, and perhaps in this case, it really is.

Posted on September 13, 2011 at 8:29pmGarbage. The “devil that made me do it” routine is played out with me. That charge is as irresponsible & enabling as the Twinkie defense, pop psychology which wants to blame music or video games & any number of other BS excuses legal defense attorneys will shamelessly latch on to.
Report Post »Believe in Bigfeets, ghosties, vampyres, lycanthropes & any number of bugaboos you wanna crow about. Even if under the influence,of a mind-altering substances, this human being is accountable for her actions. This isn’t the jungle or Carpathian mountains… your assessment is nothing more than another excuse.
I work with a couple of “ghost” magnets. The lunchroom antics between these two morons amount to p!ssing contests: “My ghost is ghostlier than your ghost!”
What’s really funny is that so many idiots believe the Hollyweird vampire is “authentic”. It’s a late 19th Century concoction that has been embellished by hacks. Vampires before Stoker (who “borrowed” his story from another fellow) were more like the modern day movie zombies… certainly not “sexy” & barely human.
Whatever… this idiot needs charged & examined to see if she is mentally ill & a danger to self or others. She can’t play well with others. As always, my challenge remains: All vampires &/or werewolves, I challenge you to bring your act to my doorstep. If you can stand up to any conventional weapon of my choice, you are welcome to floss your teeth on my guts. Oh, and that goes for demons, also.

Posted on September 14, 2011 at 1:51amThis girl is obviously confused OK? Vampires don‘t ’eat’ people they suck their blood. Vampires are unable to hold down solid food, which is why they suck blood instead of devour their victims. This girl is OBVIOUSLY a democrat since she didn’t know that >_> Just wait till a REAL vampire comes and attacks her for pretending to be a part of the masquerade, which we all know she clearly is NOT.
