The Vampire Archives is the biggest, hungriest, undeadliest
collection of vampire stories, as well as the most
comprehensive bibliography of vampire fiction ever
assembled. Dark, stormy, and delicious, once it sinks its
teeth into you there’s no escape.
Vampires! Whether imagined by Bram Stoker or Anne Rice,
they are part of the human lexicon and as old as blood
itself. They are your neighbors, your friends, and they are
always lurking. Now Otto Penzler-editor of the best-selling
Black Lizard Big Book of Pulps-has compiled the darkest,
the scariest, and by far the most evil collection of
vampire stories ever, with over 80 stories, including the
works of Stephen King and D. H. Lawrence, alongside Lord
Byron and Tanith Lee, not to mention Edgar Allan Poe and
Harlan Ellison. The Vampire Archives will drive a stake
through the heart of any other collection out there.
Other contributors include Arthur Conan Doyle, Ray
Bradbury, Ambrose Bierce, H. P. Lovecraft, Harlan Ellison,
Roger Zelazny, Robert Bloch, and Clive Barker.
The complete list of narrators includes Peter Altschuler,
Mark Bramhall, Scott Brick, Cassandra Campbell, Marc
Cashman, Jonathan Cowley, Erik Davies, Mark Deakins,
Robertson Dean, Susan Denaker, Susan Duerden, Harlan
Ellison, Ryan Gessell, Stephen Hoye, Carrington MacDuffie,
John H. Mayer, Paul Michael, Allyson Ryan, Robin Sachs,
Fred Sanders, Rob Shapiro, Simon Vance, Bob Walter, and
Steve West.
