Book Description
When the last outbreak of human vampirism occurred in the narrow oasis of New Mexico’s lower Rio Grande Valley, the oral tradition that had been passed on for centuries had yet again been sadly reconfirmed. Every two decades or so, one or more bloodthirsty ghouls appears and preys upon the vulnerable members of this small but tightly knit community. As a young curandera, or healer, Lorena Pastore was only twenty-five years old when the last outbreak occurred, and she remembers the shocking horror that spread throughout her beloved community at the time. She erroneously predicted that she would be well into her middle years of life for the next outbreak, but sadly, that is not the case. After a foolish man commits an egregious violation during a spiritual cleansing ritual, the seven years of peace is shattered. The malignant disease of human vampirism is re-incarnated, and Lorena is forced to flee across the Mexican border with a five-year-old in peril. Nathan’s father is becoming a lethal vampire, and the boy is now hunted—as is Lorena as she takes the child into her care and fights the outbreak destined to destroy her home and people.

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • With Pandora, Anne Rice began a magnificent new series of vampire novels. Now, in the second of her New Tales of the Vampires, she tells the mesmerizing story of Vittorio, a vampire in the Italian Age of Gold. Educated in the Florence of Cosimo de' Medici, trained in knighthood at his father's mountaintop castle, Vittorio inhabits a world of courtly splendor and country pleasures--a world suddenly threatened when his entire family is confronted by an unholy power. In the midst of this upheaval, Vittorio is seduced by the vampire Ursula, the most beautiful of his supernatural enemies. As he sets out in pursuit of vengeance, entering the nightmarish Court of the Ruby Grail, increasingly more enchanted (and confused) by his love for the mysterious Ursula, he finds himself facing demonic adversaries, war and political intrigue. Against a backdrop of the wonders--both sacred and profane--and the beauty and ferocity of Renaissance Italy, Anne Rice creates a passionate and tragic legend of doomed young love and lost innocence.

Book Description
The history of crime in American has proven that criminals are often the first to seize upon opportunities presented by new technologies and use them for nefarious purposes. It has also demonstrated that law enforcement groups are quick to respond and use high-tech tools to defend the public safety. This is more true than ever

Book Description
Positioning itself at the intersection of Italian film history, horror studies and cultural studies, this fascinating book asks why, and how, was the protean, transnational and transmedial figure of the vampire appropriated by Italian cinema practitioners between 1956 and 1975? The book outlines both the 1945-85 industrial context of Italian cinema and the political, economic and sociocultural context of the Italian Republic, from post-war reconstruction to the austerity of the mid-1970s. Using case studies of films by directors such as Mario Bava and Riccardo Freda, it also delves into lesser-known gems of Italian psychotronic cinema from the 1960s and 1970s, like L'amante del vampiro (The Vampire and the Ballerina) and Riti, magie nere e segrete orge nel Trecento . . . (The Reincarnation of Isabel). With original research into hitherto unpublished film production data, censorship data, original screenplays, trade papers, film magazines and vampire-themed paraliterature, the book strongly argues for the cultural legitimacy of Italian film genres like horror, adventure, comedy and erotica, whose study has so far been neglected in favour of the Italian auteur cinema of the 1940s neorealists and their later followers.

Book Description
Der Vampirmythos findet in der Populärkultur als Blutsauger und Übermensch Resonanz. Es geht um die rätselhafte Frage des Übergangs der Toten ins Jenseits, das Spannungsfeld von Eros und Thanatos. Seit mehr als 200 Jahren nach der Veröffentlichung von John Polidoris "The Vampyre. A Tale" (1819) ist der Vampir Bestandteil der europäischen Literaturen. Als liminale Figur konnotiert er Invasion und ist damit eng mit der Abwehr des (fremden) Anderen assoziiert; als ambivalente Figur signifiziert der Vampir faszinosum und tremendum, steht für Kulturkontakt und Abgrenzung gleichermaßen. Der Vampir fungiert seit der Aufklärung selbst als Reflexionsfigur unterschiedlicher Wissenskulturen und ist derart für die Fragestellung des kulturellen Transfers doppelt relevant. Insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund aktueller Entwicklungen in Europa mit gegenwärtig einhergehender Angst vor Überfremdung entwickelt die Figur neues Deutungspotential. Die Grenze zwischen Tier und Mensch, belebt/unbelebt, dem Heiligen und dem Profanen, zwischen Genres und Medien, zwischen Kulturen, gesellschaftlichen Schichten, Geschlechtern, geographischen Räumen – all diese Aspekte thematisiert dieser Band am Beispiel der Grenzgängerfigur Vampir. Mit Beiträgen von: Raul Calzoni, Maria Grazia Cammarota, Silvia Casazza, Michela Gardini, Kirsten von Hagen, Peter von Möllendorff, Alexandra Müller, Marco Sirtori, Martin Spies, Bernhard Unterholzner, Alessandra Violi
