Vampires Live in the Dark

Vampires are older than fiction. Long before novels and films, people feared creatures that walked at night, fed on the living, and returned again and again.Vampires Live in the Dark brings together vampire myths from every corner of the world. Europe's restless dead, Africa's forest hunters, the Middle East's silent night demons, Asia's shapeshifters, and the Americas' wandering spirits all appear here in retellings shaped by real folklore.This is not an encyclopedia. These are not dry summaries. These are the kinds of stories people shared when they wanted to warn each other about what lived in the dark. Folktales passed from mouth to ear, whispered at night, traded around campfires, and told by children who knew better than to walk alone.These stories stay true to their roots while delivering the feeling of listening to a tale in the firelight. Some vampires devour. Some lure. Some do not need to move at all.Wherever you are, the dark is never empty.
