This collection brings together key writings which convey the breadth of what is understood to be Gothic, and the ways in which it has produced, reinforced, and undermined received ideas about literature and culture. In addition to its interests in the late eighteenth-century origins of the form, this collection anthologizes path-breaking essays on most aspects of gothic production, including some of its nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first century manifestations across a broad range of cultural media.

One of the first psychic vampire novels of its time - where the vampire feeds off of more than just blood - The House of the Vampire is an early classic in its genre. Republished in this new edition, this Victorian novel operates in the continuum of life and death. What has been can be again, though often terribly transformed. Energetically inventive and infused with a relish for the supernatural, especially the trappings of the dark, The House of the Vampire delivers a horror which we know does not - but none the less conceivably might - exist and threaten ourselves. Blurring the lines between fact and fiction, The House of the Vampire is considered a classic among Victorian Gothic stories.

Nosferatu. The Undead. Of all the ghastly figures in the literature of horror and the supernatural, none is so dreadful, yet darkly alluring, as the vampire. An unholy creature doomed to wander the earth, neither living nor dead, the vampire lusts for human blood as the only thing which can prolong its horrid twilight existence. This collection of stories from the 19th century is a wonderfully eerie journey into the formative years of vampire fiction and serves as a look into the literary background from which later incarnations of the vampire myth, from Dracula to Lestat, ultimately draw their life's blood. This collection includes stories by Johann Ludwig Tieck, John Polidori, Theophile Gautier, William Gilbert, Sheridan Le Fanu and Julian Hawthorne.

"The House of the Vampire" written in days gone by, sophisticated in a way modern "novels" lack. The House of the Vampire by George Sylvester Viereck is a classic gothic novel first published in the United Kingdom in 1907. A true book of worth, a classic that lives in an era of timeless distinction. Early books emit an excellence unlike any from modern times. You will not be dissatisfied with this work, a novel at its finest. A Look Inside "The freakish little leader of the orchestra, newly imported from Sicily to New York, tossed his conductor's wand excitedly through the air, drowning with musical thunders the hum of conversation and the clatter of plates. Yet neither his apish demeanour nor the deafening noises that responded to every movement of his agile body detracted attention from the figure of Reginald Clarke and the young man at his side as they smilingly wound their way to the exit." Synopsis As one of the first psychic vampire novels of its period, The House of the Vampire is an early classic in its genre, where the vampire feeds on other things than just blood. This Victorian classic is about the cycle of life and death. What has already happened can be resurrected, but in a drastically different form. The House of the Vampire is a vividly imaginative horror novel filled with a love of the occult, especially the trappings of the dark, that delivers a horror that we know does not exist yet may possibly exist and threaten us. The House of the Vampire is a book in which the lines between fiction and reality are blurred.
