"Sanguinarium" is the sixth episode of the fourth season of television series The X-Files. Bizarre murders in a hospital's plastic surgery unit lead Mulder and Scully to suspect a supernatural force may be responsible. Text taken from the "Sanguinarium" summary here.

[edit] Trivia

The book that Mulder reads and learns that witches can make people vomit needles is the Encyclopedia Of Witchcraft & Demonology by Russell H. Robbins (ISBN 0517362457).

Nurse Waite's name is most likely a reference to the 19th Century Occultist Arthur Edward Waite, whose name is still on Rider-Waite tarot decks.
