The French theologian Antoine Augustin Calmet wrote a 1746 treatise on this supernatural phenomenon. In the 1960's, this phenomenon allegedly occurred in London's Highgate neighborhood. The soldier Arnold Paole and the peasant Peter Plogojowitz were two widely-reported victims of this phenomenon. In one country, this phenomenon is associated with creatures known as strigoi. Dr. Gerhard van Swieten concluded that this phenomenon did not exist after being sent to study it by the Empress Maria Theresa, who was concerned about an alleged epidemic of this phenomenon in 18th century Hungary, which was leading many frightened peasants to dig up and destroy corpses.
