Vampires Save the Night: Heroes, Anti-Heroes, and Not-So-Reformed Villains

Heroes. Villains. And everything in between — and they're here to save the night!. Across the centuries and across the globe, the vampire appears in our myths, folktales, dreams, and nightmares. In some tales, the vampire is a ferocious and much-feared predator, in others a harbinger of death and decay. Elsewhere, the vampire is lonely and long-suffering. In many modern tales, the vampire is a lover whose promises of an eternal happily-ever-after end sometimes in tragedy and sometimes in ecstasy. Such myths are the inspiration for the twenty-one stories and poems in Vampires Save the Night. Here you will find vampiric lovers and artists, lawyers and superheroes, vigilantes and conservationists, and so much more. They are heroes, anti-heroes, and not-so-reformed villains.
