Oops, posted in the wrong thread.

What i meant to say was, what's the deal with the brick? Oh, and more vampire threads i say.

Edit: When I first looked at this I was on mobile and I could only see the pic. Looked again and I see they explain the brick thing.

Monster mummies of Japan
Lurking the halls of Buddhist temples and museums across Japan are a host of monster mummies — the preserved remains of demons, mermaids, kappa, tengu, raijū, and even human monks. Here are a few remarkable specimens for the adventurous and brave at heart.

I loved the part about the living mummies. Imagine putting yourself through that for almost 7 years?

Does 'built like a **** brick house' have any relevance here whatsoever? Could this expalin where the saying comes from?

Gah, terrible.:p

Gotta love the 'ol mythology in regards to Vampires. According to Romanian Folklore I'm destined to become a Vamp because I'm the seventh in my family, and all of my siblings were of the same sex.:eek::pac:

teh skull was biting a brick ?
And that is meant to stop if rising as a vampire, that is a new one on me.
