I read about them in a book about vampires. One thing is that they drag
their guts behind them. Kiddies are encouraged to put broken glass on their
windowsils so these vampire women (or is there only one?) get their guts cut
up when they try to come in.
Hey, I didn't invent the things, don't balme me.
V:TM had a rather shoddy version of this in their Kindred of the East, but I
think the heads stayed attached to the bodies in that. I could be wrong.
