Знак вурдалака

The manuscript about the curse of princes from the noble house of Kantakuzen was made by Stepkov Andreyevich Volkov, an official of the detective department.While still quite a young man, this official was appointed by the authorities to conduct an investigation in the noble house of Prince Antioch Cantemir, who by his father belonged to the glorious Moldovan family of Kantemirov, and by mother to the family of the princes Kantakuzins.And then an accident happened in the indicated house. After all, the Cantacuzines came from Wallachia and brought with them to Russia the dark knowledge of their ancestors. It so happened that his dead serf, who had risen from the grave, appeared in the house of Prince Antiochus and entailed this chain of mysterious events. At first, it seemed to everyone that the ancient legends of the ghouls, who had risen from the dead, became a reality. Indeed, in fairy tales, which to this day can be heard in Wallachia, Serbia, Dalmatia, the ghoul is a dead sorcerer and he kills people by sucking blood from them. But then the matter became more complicated and for it secrets appeared even more ancient, associated with the mysterious composition known as the "Water of Life".
