There's a very clear line from Bram Stoker's Dracula to the glut of vampire stories available in bookstores today. However, tales of bloodsucking creatures predate Dracula and exist in the mythology of many cultures. Covering the history of the vampire myth as well as how it's used today, the main content engages even reluctant readers with a high-interest topic. Full-color photographs and other images of vampires through the ages show how the depiction of this chilling creature has changed over time. Additional fact boxes add a dose of reality to a tale that's so well known, it sometimes feels like it could be true!
