Was it a vampire? A hoax? A mass delusion? Or something darker?In this episode of Velvet Bite Radio, I sit down with researcher and writer Gary Parsons—one of the most respected voices on the infamous Highgate Vampire case of 1970s London. We dig deep into the real history, the gothic media circus, and the occult overtones surrounding the sightings at Highgate Cemetery.
We explore:
* The strange events and eyewitness accounts at Highgate
* The feud between psychic investigators Sean Manchester and David Farrant
* How the case blurred folklore, urban legend, and personal obsession
* The media’s role in myth-making and moral panic
* Why the Highgate Vampire still captivates 50 years later
From ancient graves to tabloid warfare, this is a tale of vampires, vanity, and the undead myth that refuses to die.
