A collection of some of the greatest vampire fiction ever written the penguin book of vampire stories contains not only great stories but cultural and historically significant works as well such as polidori’s “the vampyre” the first vampire story written in the english language

The longest in the collection i think it may have been better off as a novel

It’s generally acknowledged in the horror field that campbell is no good as a novelist but makes a damn good short story writer

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

Because it is trying to cover a broad spectrum it does include many wellknown stories which will already be familiar to the accomplished vampirereader

But it also includes oldfashioned stories of poor quality which were written to be mainly sensationalist but which ended up adding their flavour to many subsequent vampire stories and other shorts which are usually only mentioned in other books and not reprinted

There is little editorial content about this other than a small introduction and some comment on each author before their story
