“É possível verificar que conforme a doença-vampirismo se espalha pela narrativa, ela progressivamente a contamina com um discurso viral, que acaba permeando toda a ação: as pessoas se sentem “doentes”, “um lixo”, mas “deve ser só gripe”; se Mike está doente, “alguns acham que ele pegou alguma doença do Danny Glick”; quando a mãe de Danny Glick começa a ter sonhos estranhos com o filho morto, seu marido nota como “ela estava pálida [...] os lábios haviam perdido a cor natural, e ela ganhara olheiras escuras”; se a Casa Marsten fede, o odor “lembrava lágrimas, vômito e trevas”; se a indústria dos trailers cresce, ela cresce “como uma epidemia”; se o medo de uma doença indizível se espalha, “fantasias paranoicas podem ser contagiosas”; se o vampiro logra atacar-me, “não encosta em mim, fui contaminado”.”
