Description

This Handbook MRW will be a unique encompassing overview of the figure of the vampire. Not only covering the list of usual suspects, this volume will provide coverage from the very first reports of vampire-like creatures in the 17th century to film and media representations in the 21st century. The Palgrave Handbook of the Vampire will show that what you thought you knew about vampires is only a fraction of the real and fascinating story.
