Vampires - Inside the Myths & Mystery: The Truth About the Undead! Secrets Behind the Superstitions, History's Most Famous Bloodsuckers, How Dracula Changed Everything + 25 Essential Films

Was that scuffling in the shadows something sinister? Did a sexy, black-clad stranger prickle the hairs on the back of your neck? Could it have been a...vampire? Tales of undead creatures with a taste for human blood have been around for centuries, and continue to scare and thrill in a way that other monsters just don’t. From new books like Scarlett St. Clair’s King of Battle and Blood to films like The Invitation and Renfield, they continue to haunt and inspire our stories.

In these pages, we’ll discuss that history and introduce you to real-life vampire communities. There’s a guide to undead care and feeding and a bucket list of vacay spots for fang fans. We’ll explore their role in pop culture, chat with the creator of AMC’s Interview with the Vampire and, of course, revisit Bram Stoker’s seminal novel Dracula. So come out of the coffin and join us...we invite you in!
