When a young priest falls in love with a mysterious courtesan, he must choose between the life of his beloved and his own immortal soul. The arrival of a wealthy foreign aristocrat in London is connected with a series of unsettling murders. These stories by John Polidori and Theophile Gautier are collected here with others representing the development of the vampire archetype from its emergence out of legend in the Victorian age to its reinvention as the embodiment of inhumanity in the modern era.
