Publisher Description
Set during the reign of King George II, this gruesome tale concerns the persecution of the Bannerworth family by Sir Francis Varney, a vampire who has developed the habit of creeping into the Bannerworth home and sucking the blood of their daughter, Flora. Varney is presented sympathetically, a victim of circumstances as he tries to save himself, and his victims, from such dreadful acts.

A Delightful Classic
For its genre, Varney the Vampire is a must-have! The situations are simple, the plot alternates between simplistic and absent, but the writing is matched only in other Penny-Dreadfuls such as "Wagner, the Were-Wolf." It's pure Victorian Gothic, complete with bodice-ripping and dark and stormy nights!
