Publisher Description
Since the first appearance of a vampire in Robert Southey’s 1801 epic poem, Thalaba the Destroyer, we mortals have endured a morbid fascination with these peculiar creatures of the night.
They come in many forms: charming and seductive; ghastly and terrible. When the lights go down, they prey upon us, thirsty for our life-sustaining, vital fluid….
Join us as we explore a number of classic yarns concerning the various guises of the vampire: from Aleksey Tolstoy’s horrifying description of a vampiric family in The Family of the Vourdalak to Robert E. Howard’s tale of a creature loosed from bondage after having been buried for over three centuries, in The Horror from the Mound.
Thank the gods these creatures are merely fictitious…aren’t they?
