John Polidori's The Vampyre (1819) was the first vampire tale in English prose, and its cold, highborn Lord Ruthven is the blueprint for every seductive undead nobleman since. His story leads six classics of the undead-Mary Elizabeth Braddon's sinister good lady, Mary Wilkins Freeman's Luella Miller, F. Marion Crawford's For the Blood Is the Life, E. F. Benson's The Room in the Tower, and Bram Stoker's snow-bound Dracula's Guest.
Six classic vampire stories in one volume, running from 1819 to 1914-the vampire as the nineteenth century dreamed him: seductive, patient, and thirsty.
This Lightbound Library edition gathers them behind an original painting by Jessica von Braun, published by Solocosmo Press.
