Construction workers discovered the graves when they made a ring road around Gliwice, Poland, Telegraph reported. The heads of the remains in the tombs that are not on the neck but at the top of the legs - show that they are the subject of a execution ritual to ensure that the corpses will not be revived.

The time of buried remains is a mystery. Dr. Jacek Pierzak, one of the site's archaeologists, said they did not see jewelry, buckle belts, buttons or anything. Tomb artifacts can help experts determine the age of the remains.

The ancient people treated cruelly to people suspected of being vampires. Penalties for suspects include decapitation, hanging, and allowing the corpse to decompose until the head leaves the body. When burying 'vampires' , people often put their heads on their feet in hopes that they will not be able to find their heads to revive.

In Bram Stoker's novel, vampires are robed and blood-sucking people. The vampire concept in the Middle Ages was much wider than the vampire image of writer Bram Stoker's novel. For example, pagan followers or putting food on the graves of deceased relatives can be considered vampires and will be executed quickly.
