THE HOUSE
OF THE
VAMPIRE
By George Sylvester Viereck
- Release Date: 1907-01-01
- Genre: Epic Fantasy
A 1907 Goth psychic vampire - who feeds off of more than just blood! Energetically inventive and infused with a relish for the supernatural, especially the trappings of the dark. This isn't a book about your traditional bloodsucking vampire, but rather a mental vampire. Ernest, a young writer, moves in with Reginald Clarke, a successful writer. Reginald has a habit of taking young creative types under his wing and Ernest thinks he can benefit from Clarke's genius and patronage. He needed the voice of loving-kindness to call him back from the valley of haunting shadows, where his poet's soul was want to linger overlong. But how things turn into a nightmare is beautifully described in the book.
