“Re-staking” its claim as the most complete and authoritative source on the subject, this fully revised, expanded edition of “The Vampire Book” features more facts, more photos (including a color insert) and new features that are certain to quench the thirst of even the most die-hard fan of the undead. 200 photos.

MY THOUGHTS:
If you are a vampire lover like me, then this is the book for you. When I received this book I was not expecting it to be so big! This book is over 900+ pages. This is THE book for vampire lore and history. It includes photos as well as information on everything vampire. It is like a dictionary of all vampire people, myths and accounts of vampires. You can tell the author did his research with this book and it shows with the writing. Everything you want to look up is in alphabetical order just like an encyclopedia. I was amazed at the photos and thorough research that is in this book. Simply amazing!

MY RATING:


Outstanding Book That Will Stay On My Bookshelf
For Rereading!
