Mark Collins Jenkins’ Vampire Forensics: Uncovering the Origins of an Enduring Legend (National Geographic Society, 2010) offers a breezy narrative style along the lines of the Discovery Channel’s tomb-raiding specials, yet manages to convey a wealthy of information, with good endnotes. All those of you who, like me, are working on vampire plays may appreciate a short list of the books I’ve found useful among many that were not:ĭespite its garish cover, Rosemary Ellen Guiley’s Encyclopaedia of Vampires, Werewolves, and Other Monsters (Visionary Living, 2005) has a beautiful six-page bibliography and is written in matter-of-fact prose, with photos that are excellent and well chosen.
