The indispensable pocket guide to the world of vampire movies, from Nosferatu to A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night.

ALSO AVAILABLE:

Close-Ups: Wes Anderson Close-Ups: New York Movies

When F. W. Murnau brought Nosferatu to the screen in 1922 he ushered in the bloody reign of cinema’s most venerable villain – the vampire. Nocturnal, fanged and insatiable for human blood, the vampire has infected the public consciousness like no other movie monster.

In this pocket guide, Charles Bramesco goes vampire hunting across a century of cinema, stalking around lonely Transylvanian castles, dusty New York apartments and rain-soaked Washington woods to discover why the vampire has become cinema’s most enduring villain.
