The Evolution of the Vampire

Park Forest Public Library 400 Lakewood Blvd, Park Forest, IL, United States

Throughout time, the vampire has been both the sum of all our fears and the perfect scapegoat, retaining an allure that has carried its popularity across centuries. Author Laura Enright examines the evolution of the vampire in myth, literature, and media to investigate how an ancient bogeyman has become a romantic figure, superhero, and even a teen dream.
