The Vampire

by Ornella Volta (Editor), Valeria Riva (Editor), Roger Vadim (Foreword)

He felt the icy hardness of her sharp little teeth on his throat, a strangely soothing sting and an engulfing blackness rising over him.

A collection of stories, both fact and fiction, about the mysterious blood-sucking beings who have haunted history and literature for centuries.

They are presented by French film director Roger Vadim, who makes it plain that although he does not believe in vampire stories, he believes in what inspired them.

A remarkable collection! Starting with a historical treatise on cases of vampirism in the European countryside, this holds numerous wonderful stories that range from all over. The 1800s and early 1900s are well-represented; many favorites like Carmella and Clarimonde abound within, as well as others that were marvelous to meet, such as Mr Koberman.
