Irish Vampires: the Dearg Due and the Abhartach

On this episode of Mythic Existence, host Jack Daly begins our preparations for St. Patrick’s Day by investigating the Irish vampire: the Dearg Due. We’ll look at one particular incarnation of this creature by recanting the story of the Abhartach, which may have been an inspiration for Stoker’s Dracula.
