| | The Vampire in Ontario - Wilno's Vampiric Legends |
 | | His studies led to a 1972 publication entitled "Vampires, Dwarves, And Witches Among The Ontario Kashubs" This 85 page report later inspired articles by such diverse publications as Psychology Today, The Canadian Magazine, and The National Enquirer. | | | Highly unlikely even if there are some whom still reside in this Ontario hamlet that do believe. | | | From the Wilno Heritage Society we learn that there was no Catholic church close by and the Kaszubians were a highly religious people. |

| | In 1972, Wilno came into the spotlight as the result of a report "Vampires, Dwarves, And Witches Among The Ontario Kashubs" published by the Canadian Museum of Man, now the Canadian Museum of Civilization. | | | This report appears to have been based more on folklore than local customs. | | | The people who first settled in this area in the 1800s were mainly of Kashubian origin. |
