OKay, I know that the moment you read vampire and then see this picture, you really think that I have gone off the deep end.

But its true. This is a Nachzehrer.
Its a species of vampire found among the Kashubes of northern Europe and in parts of Germany.
Its able to kill its relatives through a kind of long-range sympathetic magic. While in the grave it will devour its own shroud, piece by piece, moving on to feast on its own flesh.

According to legend, the nachzehrer leaves its coffin or tomb often in the shape of a pig.

And this is my rendition of that moment of him leaving his tomb. He is more pig than man, in the middle of transformation.

I really want to color this picture, oddly enough.
Its the first of past drawings that actually looks good.
