I want to warn you, stalker, right away: the bloodsuckers have long since made a nest in the village, and maybe something worse, so be careful.

The Bloodsucker village is a location in the Army Warehouses featured in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky, and in Chemical Plant in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
Overview[]
"Bloodsucker village" is the name colloquially given to an abandoned hamlet located to the northwest of the Military base. It is well known for being home to numerous Bloodsuckers (hence the name), but also to various anomalies and other types of mutants. Most stalkers in the vicinity, especially those of Freedom, treat the village as a cursed place and avoid it at all costs, although some are known to look for artifacts in the village.
Appearances[]
Shadow of Chernobyl[]

Murk's camp in bloodsucker village.
In Shadow of Chernobyl, the player can receive a quest from Skinflint or Murk with the objective to clear out the mutant threat from the village. After the quest has been completed, stalkers do sometimes visit the place. It should be noted that the Bloodsuckers respawn, like all other mutants.
When entering the area from the south, three Freedom stalkers can be seen, one of whom is Murk. Murk and his comrades usually die eventually from Bloodsucker or pseudodog attacks. Controllers will spawn in the village occasionally. This was rare in early versions of the game but has had its likelihood increased with patch 1.0005. Expeditions into the Bloodsucker village depart regularly from the old farm across the road, usually with groups of seven or eight stalkers. It is not confirmed whether this happens before finishing the village quest - Kill the bloodsuckers in the village. If taking the quest from Skinflint, Murk and his two friends will likely die sooner or later.
Clear Sky[]

Radio tower still standing in the same shape after all events.
In Clear Sky, the player visits the Bloodsucker village during a main quest where the player needs to find Leshiy and his team and free them from the Space Anomaly. The player needs to climb to the top of a tower to receive Leshiy's signal, but not before being confronted by the bloodsuckers that roam around the tower. In the village, the player will run into a mercenary named Hog, who will tell the player about the transmitter in the army base which might be of use to help Leshiy find his way out.
Two of the houses in the village seem to have a invisible Space Anomaly in them that when walked into, transports the player to the other house.

Trivia[]

Fang's supposed grave
- It was here that the insane stalker lost his mind, though it is not clear why. According to cut content, he encountered a beast within the village and suffered severe mental damage as a result. This may be referring to the controller that occasionally spawns in the village.
- In Shadow of Chernobyl, in the southwest part of the village, one can find a grave with Fang's name on it. There is also a written date of his year of birth and death: 1971/2008. This would strongly go with Ghost's story of Fang being shot and killed in the Army Warehouses. This, however, conflicts with the statement that he was buried in Pripyat, as indicated by the description of the stash Fang's goodies.
