A collection of vampire tales from some of horrors best.

You will find no friendly vampires between these pages. In these stories, vampires are once again a source of evil, coming from the darkness. If you like your vampire stories with bite, this is for you.

Grabbed this as a last minute read for spooky season.

This collection features a take on the vampire by each author listed above. Some are straight forward, while some of the others sought a new approach to the horror favorite. Perhaps it’s my fault, not only because of the cover, but the vampire genre at large, but I was expecting gothic. So where my mind went was more urban fantasy-ish/alternative world. Two of the first stories could have fit this, but then like 2/3rds through they just mentioned the characters in jeans and I was so thrown off.

Regardless of that, which may have been my own perception, this collection definitely went from worst to best for me. The first few stories were quite shaky, but as the collection progressed, I really liked the final few. Chizmar and Roberts both offered up some great ones.

Personally a 3.5/5*. Worth checking out!
