#Romania’s #FarRight candidate, championed by #JDVance & #ElonMusk, detained by police

Romanian prosecutors have opened a #criminal investigation into #CălinGeorgescu, the far-right, Pro-#Russia populist who surged from almost nowhere to win the first round of the country’s cancelled presidential election last year.

Where should a medievalist in Sighișoara, #Romania go? Well, anywhere really. But at the end of the evening, it has to be the Voynich Pub!

The bartender confirmed that it's named after the #manuscript, but confessed that they don't have a copy to look through.

The Scottish anthropologist who inspired Dracula

“More decidedly evil is the nosferatu, or vampire, in which every Roumanian peasant believes as firmly as he does in heaven or hell…”

—from THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST: Facts, Figures, & Fancies from Transylvania (1888), by Airdrie’s own Emily Gerard. Gerard’s work was a key part of Bram Stoker’s research materials for Dracula.
