The Gorbals Vampire archiveIn 1954, playgrounds across Glasgow, already enthralled with American horror comics, were abuzz with the tale of a man with iron teeth who had abducted and eaten two local young boys. One night in late September, hundreds of children aged 4 - 14 gathered at the Southern Necropolis. Armed with whatever they could find, they began a chaotic hunt through the Gorbals to track down and kill the Gorbals Vampire, shocking the authorities and the general public.
