By the way, a little glimpse of a text I am translating (it's an article about peculiar Bulgarian folklore tales and traditions):

"One such topos, which is based upon the tragic clashes upon the Bulgarian ethnic land, is Gelin mezarı – the Bride’s grave. According to the legend, which circulates within the narrative complexes of the populations of the villages Fakiya, Rosenovo and Debelt, a great wedding procession passed through the woods many centuries ago. Daali marauders attacked the wedding and slaughtered everyone – from the bride and groom to the oldest woman. The bodies remained there for several days, unburied and desecrated by the wild forest beasts, until all the wedding-goers turned into vampires, and thus the place was considered cursed and no one dared go there anymore. The location and the legend are apparently based upon two primary cultural fragments. On one side, they demonstrate the established ideas of Balkan mythology: wedding-death; demonization of violently killed and improperly buried characters."

That's the kind of fairy tales that we use to put children to sleep :P
