The Jewett City vampires were thought to be the cause of an incident surrounding the Ray family, a large farming family of Griswold, Connecticut, in the 1840s and 1850s, who upon the death of multiple family members concluded they were plagued by vampires, and in 1854 disinterred the dead relatives and burned their bodies to "protect" themselves from the undead.
