Aside from its many possible ghosts, the legend that brought most notoriety to Highgate Cemetery is that of The Highgate Vampire. This video tells the story of the so-called "vampire epidemic" that terrorized the area from 1967 to 1984 and the bishop and vampire hunter who claims to have tracked down the ghoul, dragged him from his lair, and killed him. Watch the video.

I am afraid I found the Bishop creepier than any vampire!
Bishop Seán Manchester was consecrated by Bishop Illtyd Thomas, Bishop Michael Weston and Bishop Henry Vermeulen on 4 October 1991 at a Church in Hertfordshire, England. So How is he a “self-ordained bishop” when three other bishops ordained him? Bishop Seán Manchester took October Films to task over the narrator’s defamatory remarks “self-proclaimed” and “obscure religious cult” in the Highgate Vampire video. Whoever wrote that part of the script obviously had not done any meaningful research. October Films immediately apologised in writing to Bishop Manchester. Hence subsequent transmissions and Discovery’s DVD “True Horror: Vampires” omit these slurs. The video on YouTube is the original and unfortunately still contains the libel.
