This book is not for the “Twilight” fans, but rather for those who wish to learn the real history of vampires and creatures who walk the night.  The author, paranormal researcher Brad Steiger, dispels the many myths of the vampire, but does inform the reader of true frightening accounts of real vampires, etc. that walk our streets.  This is a well-organized readable resource – suitable for research, as well as, the casual reader.  Photos and sketches are printed in black-and-white.  A “Vampires: A Chronology” section and an index are included.  This dark read will definitely appeal to the horror fancier.
