Is Griswold vampire burials haunted?

The record holds 1 claim — filed as reported, not verified. The heaviest filing is classed media reported. The archive documents the claim; it takes no position on the ghost.

The record — long form

Griswold is the rearranged — the 'skull crossbones' that's the pose's form, the 'femurs crossed' that's the bones' layout. The 'JB55' is the nailed — the 'brass tacks' that's the coffin's mark, the '55' that's the dead's age. The 'consumption killed' is the feared — the 'TB' that's the disease's kind, the 'come back' that's the family's fear.

The 'DNA named' is the solved — the 'Barber' that's the surname's match, the 'Y-chromosome' that's the test's kind. The 'son beside' is the proved — the 'NB13' that's the child's tag, the 'Nathan 1826' that's the record's match. Griswold is the faced — the 'reconstruction' that's the '22's reveal, the 'farmer' that's the man's job.

The file keeps Griswold: the rearranged bones, the nailed initials, the feared return, and the named vampire.

Griswold is the archive's Connecticut file — the vampire DNA gave back his name.

Why this file matters

Griswold vampire burials is the archive's Connecticut file — the panic's proof in a gravel pit.

A grave keeps its tacks — the file's suggestion being that Griswold's hold is the feared: the 'crossbones' that's the pose's form, the 'TB' that's the disease's cause, and the 'Barber' that's the name's return.
