Spooky + Mysterious Aspects of Life: 400 Year Old “Vampire!”

Hey there, DETECTIVES! DETECTIVE WRITER here to tell you all about a 2022 discovery in Poland, the remains of a young woman in an unmarked grave.

TRIGGER WARNING: I will be presenting images of a skeleton, if anyone is uncomfortable, please feel free to skip ahead, DETECTIVES.

The corpse of a young woman who was buried face down with an iron sickle around her neck and padlock on her foot, to ensure that she would never come back from the dead.

The young woman who was between the ages of 18 and 20, known by scientists and nicknamed by locals as “Zosia,” was entombed in an unmarked grave in the northern area of Poland, in Pien, and was suspected of being a vampire by her neighbors. Her grave was identified only as Grave No. 75.

Zosia lived in 17th-century Europe, where there was a large fear and panic of supernatural monsters, and she was believed to be a “Vampire child.” The objects that she was buried with were thought to magically protect humans against vampires and were specifically intended to do just that.

Through 3D printing, DNA, and modeling clay, scientists reconstructed Zosia’s face, and with her skull analysis, it was revealed that she had suffered from a health condition that may have contributed to fainting spells and migraines, including a few mental health issues. Scientists are considering the reconstruction as bringing Zosia back to life as well as others they continue to find to this day, including a child and a pregnant woman.

Murder Mystery Storytime: The Case of Tammy Jo Alexander

Hey there, DETECTIVES! DETECTIVE WRITER here to tell you all about an unsolved case that occurred in 1979, the murder of Tammy Jo Alexander. TRIGGER WARNING: I will be discussing the murder of a teenager in a bit of detail, so if anyone is uncomfortable, please feel free to skip ahead, DETECTIVES.

Tammy was a 16 year old teen who was fatally shot two times and left in a field in Caledonia, New York. Earlier in 1979, the same year she was killed, she ran away from home in Brooksville, Florida.

On November 10th, 1979, Tammy’s body was discovered by a farmer who believed he was investigating a trespasser after seeing red clothing in one of his cornfields. She had no signs of sexual assault and was fully clothed. The autopsy indicated that someone had shot Tammy first at the back of her head, dragged her into the cornfield where she was then shot a second time, and left for dead. Her pockets were also empty which also indicated that any kind of identification was removed by the killer(s).

For over three decades, Tammy was known as Cali Doe and Caledonia Jane Doe due to the fact that the night she died, there was a lot of heavy rain which had washed a lot of forensic evidence including DNA traces of the killer(s). However, in 2005, DNA was extracted from her remains as well as a forensic analysis on her clothes. She also had a half sister who was confirmed as a match for her DNA in 2014.

On January 26th, 2015, in Livingston County, NY, over 35 years later after her death, police officially announced her identity as Tammy Jo Alexander.

In 1984, serial killer Henry Lee Lucas had confessed to murdering Tammy but he did not identify her. Therefore, his statement was not considered credible. However, in 2020, the FBI announced that the male DNA found on Tammy’s clothes was being tested in national databases hoping to find a familial link.

To this day, the killer(s) remains unidentified and Tammy’s case is still unsolved.

Unsolved Disappearances: The Case of Tammy Kingery

Hey there, DETECTIVES! DETECTIVE WRITER here to tell you all about an unsolved case that occurred in 2014, the disappearance of Tammy Kingery.

Tammy Kingery was a 37 year old nurse in South Carolina who went missing on September 20th, 2014. She had called her husband while at work, informing him that she did not feel well and asked that he take her home. He picked her up and he finished some errands with his two sons. Once they returned home, the house was locked but Tammy was nowhere to be seen.

Allegedly she had left a note that said she would be back soon but Tammy did not return and has never been seen again. Her purse, keys, and phone were left behind in the house which were needed to lock the house.

On the morning of her disappearance, Tammy’s coworkers said that she started her shift at 7 A.M. but seemed to be upset about something, raised her voice while talking, and had checked her own blood pressure four times and saw it high each time which she was told to calm down. A short while later, she called her husband and asked him to take her home.

Tammy’s family said it was unusual for her to leave a note or go to the woods near her house. They also told the police that Tammy had a lifelong struggle with depression but that she took her meds to treat it. However, it played a factor in straining her marriage with extramarital affairs and suicide attempts.

Although the police had several theories and multiple search parties, to this day, Tammy has not been seen again.

Unsolved Mysteries: The Case of Ricky McCormick

Hey there, DETECTIVES! DETECTIVE WRITER here to tell you all about an unsolved case that occurred in 1999, the death of Ricky McCormick.

On June 30th, 1999, a woman discovered Ricky’s body in a cornfield near West Alton, Missouri as she was driving by the area. His body was partially decomposed but Ricky was identified by fingerprints. It was considered a surprise for Ricky’s body to even be in a cornfield since there was no public transportation nearby and he did not own a car. The police couldn’t find any indication that anyone had a motive to kill Ricky.

On June 25th, 1999, Ricky was last seen alive getting a check-up at a local hospital in St. Louis.

In Ricky’s pockets, he had two notes that neither the police nor the FBI were able to figure out; although, Ricky’s family said he used to make encrypted notes as a child that nobody could solve it. However, they only learned about the notes when a local TV broadcast discussed it.

In March 2011, the FBI appealed to request the public’s help decoding the notes. While many responses have come in, the two notes that were found in Ricky’s pockets remain unsolvable to this day.
