VAMPIRE STORIES TO READ & WATCH

IN MY SEARCH FOR vampire stories to sink my teeth into, I found quite a few. But then you guys got all busy in my socials and sent me even more suggestions, so I decided we need a list. 

Here below, I’ve listed all the titles I have so far. For the books, I’ve added the name of the author and for the films, I’ve added release year.  For tv-series I didn’t add any extras, but that may change later. We’ll see.

The list is sorted into titles from A to Z, and in the cases where a story has been adapted I’ve listed those titles too.

Please note, this is not an exhaustive list by far and I would still be grateful if you send me titles you think should be included. Also, some titles here are young adult stories, and some are stories that have vampires in them even though they’re not a vampire story per see. My philosophy: If there’s a vamp in it, it’s getting on the list. Simples!

Last but not least, I’ll link any titles I’m combing through in my vampire studies to whatever I’ve written about them.
