The Vampire In Modern Greece is a book written by Montague Summers that explores the history and mythology of vampires in Greece.

He explores the various types of vampires that have been identified in Greek mythology and folklore, including the vrykolakas, the kallikantzaroi, and the lamia.The book also examines how the vampire myth has been adapted in modern Greek literature and cinema, particularly in the works of authors such as Nikos Kazantzakis and the films of director Yorgos Lanthimos.
