Twilight, in these southern climates, is almost unknown; immediately the sun sets, night begins

Danger lurks in the dead of night. Written during the infamous gathering that also produced Mary Shelleys Frankenstein, John Polidoris short story The Vampyre travels across countries, twists and turns through treacherous forests, and reveals the perils of staying out after dark. It is accompanied here by two other classic tales of the vampire genre, by Karl Adolf von Waschmann and Bram Stroker.
John Polidori (1975-1821) was a British writer and physician. Polidori accompanied Byron on his travels and attended the notorious holiday to Lake Geneva in the summer of 1816. It was during this scandalous getaway that he met the Shelleys and began work on The Vampyre, a story which later influenced Bram Stoker's Dracula. Polidori died when he was only twenty-five, but to this day he is considered to be the father of the modern vampire story.
