Further to this, the two volumes of 1000 Vampires on Screen also features 30+ exclusive interviews with the writers, directors, and actors that have brought these undead creatures to life. Jim Wynorski, Henry Rollins, Robert Bierman, Debbie Rochon, Neil Jordan, Anna Silk, Doug Jones, Leonor Varella, Catherine Hardwicke, and James Woods amongst many others discuss what glamoured them about the vampire, how they became them on screen, and why, so many of them, returned to its embrace again and again. Many of them also share exclusive and personal onset photographs, design images, and publicity shots to give new perspectives on themselves and on the vampires they created.
All of this is supported by cross-reference notes on all the entries and extensive Film, and Actor and Director Indexes making 1000 Vampires on Screen not only an indispensable reference tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike, but one of the most inventive and important books on the vampire genre of 2023.
1000 Vampires offers a delectable buffet of screen vampires, full of prime cuts and rare meats. It ranges from Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein to Zoltan, Hound of Dracula, via vamps both famous and obscure and from the first flickers of celluloid to the latest undead streaming shows from around the world. Simon Bacon’s compendious knowledge and enthusiasm leaps off every page. A bloody valuable resource for every budding vampirologist.
-Professor Roger Luckhurst, editor of Oxford World’s Classics edition of Dracula and the Cambridge Companion to Dracula
This monstrous tome is the Ancestry.com of vampire chroniclings. Barnabas Collins, Eric Northman, Alexander Lucard, and hundreds more undead you probably haven’t heard of haunt the halls of Simon Bacon’s indispensable new reference work. Readers and fans of vampires will come to this reunion expecting to see old familiar faces, but they’ll leave for Dracula’s afterparty with a carload of new fanged friends they didn’t know they always wanted.
- John Edgar Browning, Ph.D., co-author of Dracula in Visual Media and co-editor of Dracula (Norton Critical Editions) (2nd ed.)
