Summary |
A modern guide to vampires, where every page is truly written in bloodVampires, those chilling supernatural creatures of the night—do they really exist? The British Isles has a remarkable association with the realms of the undead, from the 19th-century world of Croglin Grange, Varney the Vampire, and Bram Stoker's Dracula, through to Hammer Films and the modern phenomenon of the Highgate Vampire. In this thought-provoking book, illustrated with many never before seen photographs, and drawing on extensive original research, paranormal historian Paul Adams explores the history of British vampirism in both fact and fiction. |
