"Ran inter a couple o' mad trolls on the Polish border an' I had a sligh' disagreement with a vampire in Minsk." A Belurusian vampire was a vampire had a disagreement with the half-giant Rubeus Hagrid in a pub in Minsk, Belarus in the summer of 1995. The way Hagrid explained the encounter, it suggests that the 'diagreement' was a fight of some desciption, however, this was not confirmed.

Behing the scenes
