Sažetak

The paper deals with hitherto unknown archival sources - mostly from the Bishopric Archives of Hvar, and other Church archival funds - bearing witness to the belief that „the dead used to walk and to cause death to other people“, dating from the years 1601 to 1826. An official Church declaration from 1602 against such beliefs is added in full length, as well as several recorded oral traditions from recent times, which confirm that such beliefs were deeply rooted in the minds of inhabitants of Hvar and of nearby Vis up to the present age.
A selected bibliography testifies to the fact, that such beliefs were widespread not only in Croatian lands and other South Slav countries, but throughout the Slavic world, and, indeed, throughout the globe.
