Summary |
Conventional images, born from countless vampire films, are mostly associated with Bram Stoker and his iconic 1897 novel Dracula. However, despite the popularity and influence of this celebrated novel, the vampire myth dates back more than 1,000 years. In a fascinating journey back through time, uncover the ancient folkloric origins of blood-craving creatures from beyond the grave. Learn how the vampire myth is strongly rooted in Eastern European lore, but how it has played a prominent role in the ancient cultures of Greece and China. |
