A simple MOC based on a local grave known as the Vampire's Grave. According to local legend a corpse began to cough and mumble during its funeral causing the mourners to open the coffin and drive a stake through its heart. It was then buried and the unusual chains put in place to keep it there!! The MOC itself started off as a bit of Halloween (or Hop-tu-Naa as it's also known here) fun but I ended up discovering a new (for me at least) technique to make chain fences!!

The actual grave

Unfortunately there's no real evidence that the chains were anything to do with a fear of vampires rather than just a bit of fancy decoration or to stop people walking on the grave (in fact there's a man and his wife buried there - and no one even seems to know which one was the "vampire") And anyway, we all know that there's no such thing as vampires.... or is there?

Comments always welcome...
