註釋A hauntingly beautiful photographic guide to the lore and landscapes of the vampire, from the master of gothic imagery Using infrared film to convey the ethereal atmosphere of his subjects, Marsden has traveled from Germany to the United States, and Slovakia to Scotland as he hunts out the vampires of myth and literature, and real individuals suspected of vampirism. His images include sites of perennial fascination, such as Vlad Dracul's ruined palace in the wilderness of Romania, and more recent places of vampire pilgrimage, like the Etruscan city of Volterra in Italy, home to Twilight’s ancient vampire coven. They are accompanied by his authoritative and entrancing text, filled with rare discoveries and travelers' tales, plus extracts from classics such as Bram Stoker's Dracula, and an introduction that charts the secret history of the vampire right up to the darkly romantic figure of today. Stunning, chilling, this title will satisfy gothic devotees and prove a timeless introduction for new fans of the vampire genre.
