A Real Pain in the Neck - Selected Vampire Stories

Rate this book
“A Real Pain in the Neck” is a fantastic collection of chilling vampire short stories written by various masters of the macabre. The stories “The Judge's House, By Bram Stoker”, “The Feast Of Blood, By Thomas Prest”, “Black Sunday, By Nikola Gogol”, “The Parasite, By Arthur Conan Doyle”, and “The Storm Visitor, By Thomas Prest”. 'Gothic fiction' is a subgenre of Gothic horror that is defined by a combination of fiction writing with horror, death, and sometimes romance. It arguably originated from the 1764 novel “The Castle of Otranto” by English author Horace Walpole, which was subtitled “A Gothic Story” after the second edition. This volume will appeal to lovers of Gothic and horror literature, and it is not to be missed by fans of classic vampire tales. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

About the author

Various

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.
