This dual nature of the vampire, stretching between love and death, creates a moral
ambiguity which is omnipresent in its literary treatment, incorporating and contrasting seduction and horror, heroism
and villainy. It only reflects the nature of life after death, and how it is perceived by its surrounding culture.
Is it a desirable dream, or a hateful abomination? A reward or a punishment? And what price must one pay for such
survival?
The stories contained in this collection, featuring some of the most famous vampires in literary history, incorporate
all of these contradictions; in them, vampires can be both super-human and sub-human, sexual predators and impotent,
romantic and passionate, and yet devoid of soul. Ultimately, the vampire is our own face, reflecting in the mirror
of our beliefs, the incarnation of our spiritual choices.
