Long lost to the public in out-of-print pulp magazines, dusty Victorian anthologies, and the pages of now defunct newspapers—these vintage vampire stories have truly proved immortal. Resurrected now for the year 2011, this is a stunning collection of nineteenth-century vampire stories by heavyweights such as Sabine Baring-Gould and Bram Stoker. These rare stories are arranged in chronological order from 1846 to 1913 and are compiled by two of the world’s leading vampire anthologists and experts. Also included are rare images of Bram Stoker’s handwritten manuscript pages for Count Vampire (1890) courtesy of the Rosenbach Museum & Library in Philadelphia.

This truly is a wonderful collection of long forgotten vampire (vampyre) stories, lovingly collected for this anthology in 2011.
Vintage Vampire Stories brings together a whole host of vampires; who knew there were so many variations!
Lovers of classic or gothic horror, will love this anthology. Those who like their vampires of the Twilight variety, probably won't.
My only problem with this anthology was the number of typos in the kindle edition. Otherwise, a most enjoyable read in the run up to Halloween. 👻🎃
