Blood donors are being offered discounts on tickets to a music festival in Transylvania, in a move that would make Count Dracula himself proud.

The unusual payment method was devised by organisers of the Untold Festival in the Romanian city of Cluj-Napoca, in association with the country’s blood transfusion service.
