I got the idea for "A Beast in Venice" when I saw an article describing a skeleton they had found in Venice that had a brick jammed in its mouth. The skeleton was from the plague of 1576.
This was a "shroud eater," a creature they believed was eating through its buial shroud, eating other corpses, and would rise from the grave as a vampire.
