vampire arrested

July 4th, 2005 by Abbas Halai

somewhat related to our goth story of crucifixion, exorcism and bad priests, comes the story of a vampire in ukraine who just got arrested.

A vampire has been arrested in Ukraine after luring street children into her home for their blood.

Diana Semenuha, 29, believed that drinking blood could fend off a muscle-wasting condition.

She kept the children intoxicated on drugs and alcohol and bled them regularly, selling the surplus to other black magic practitioners. When that weakened them, she dumped them back on the streets and lured replacements with the promise of a place to sleep and a hot meal.

One of the children, named only as Andrei, told police: “She gave me vodka and I sniffed some glue. But than she came up to me with a syringe and asked me to stretch out my hand. I didn’t feel any pain because I was too scared. She drew the blood with the syringe and a needle and than put it in her silver bowl and drank it, murmuring in some strange language.”

Semenuha, who when arrested gave her profession as “witch”, has admitted holding the children. “I let them sniff glue, but I paid for it and took a small amount of blood in return,” she said. “But there was no violence involved, I also fed them and gave them shelter.”
