1000 Vampires on Screen, Vol. 1: A-J Written by Simon Bacon  6x9 size  Volume 1, 336 total pages ISBN 9798887711102    1000 Vampires on Screen is a truly unique collection written by award-winning author and vampire-genre expert Simon Bacon that in two packed volumes covers the history of vampires on film and television. Looking at examples, from Nosferatu to Duckula, Blacula to Twilight, and Dark Shadows to True Blood the story of the screen vampire from its first appearance on film is told from the perspective of the vampire itself, charting its journey from a hideous, devilish monster through to romantic lead and even as aspirational role model. It is a trip that takes us around the globe, to countries in every continent, and even some places in outer space, encompassing bloodsuckers, energy-drinkers, soul-takers, life-absorbers, body-copiers, man-eating-plants, possessed objects, sexoholics, eternal lovers, and vegetarian vampires, to name but a few.                 Further to this
