This Gothic Horror Novel Spawned Dracula, Nosferatu, Interview, and all Vampire Tales to Come

The first vampire tale in English was conceived on the same "dark and stormy night" that Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was born--and you might be surprised by the very real person The Vampyre was modeled after. It's no classic like Frankenstein, but is a pioneering work that lays out many of the tropes that would be developed and refined by a legion of writers and filmmakers these past two centuries. Voice-over while clips from the 1931 movie Dracula starring Bela Lugosi are playing are quotes from The Vampyre. Check out my books!
