This is a great book and I've actually purchased it twice! This is a must have for anyone interested in vampires and vampire myths. Telling the stories and investigations of vampires this book gives you a good insight on what is true or not, yet in the end wondering if vampires really do exist or if they have only been in our imaginations all along.
This helped me a lot

I'm writing a book about vampires, and I used this book as a reference. It does a fantastic job of explaining the different types of vampire myths in different cultures as well as the literary and cinematic vampires. It is arranged in an A to Z fashion with cross references which makes easy to skim for pleasure or research.
Good read for a beginner

The author has done quite a bit of research, but much of this information is already known if you are a vampire enthusiast. For more indepth information, the reader would need to go elsewhere.There are good photographs throughout which quality add a more "otherworldly" touch to the book through their color.It is a good introduction to the vampire.
this book is the best!!
