Hey--

Found some stuff on amazon.com for you ^_^

The Vampire in Lore and Legend

I hope that helps you, and I've heard from a friend that this book had some juicy info- since the guy that wrote it was a monk- and why would he lie?

Oh, if that doesn't cut it for you, this one was a really creepy read about people who believe they are vampires. Cults and such. Here is the link to that. You can read a sample from it on amazon. I love that site... so... wonderful.

Piercing the Darkness: Undercover with Vampires in America Today

If you really want some more though, go to amazon.com, search for vampires in nonfiction, and you should be able to pull some stuff up. Your local Borders can order them for you if you don't want to use the website. It is also really helpful when you look at the "Customers who bought this book also bought:" section on it, because then you find more links to more books that you didn't get in the search. Well, good luck. ^_^

Slave of my Thirst by Tom Holland... caught my eye at the library one day, and I've never read a vampire book before, but this was good... interesting, and I'm not sure how "accurate" it is, for someone who knows about vampires and things, but I enjoyed it thoroughly...

teentitansfanatic, either put that picture in your sig or be declared a "certified n00b" as your member group. That will prohibit you from posting any kind of picture in any kind of way.

Now, on topic...

Usually, you can find a few interesting facts in any book regarding historic England. Supernatural books and the such. Sometimes, historical records of vampires or werewolves may occur(however exaggerated). You'd be impressed.

An excellent magazine to subscribe to for this stuff would be [u]FATE[/u]. You'll find everything there, from Mothman(yes, the one from "The Mothman Prophecies". It's based off fact) to Prince Vlad the Impaler or one of the Queen Elisabeths, who would drink the blood of young women to "keep her youth".

It's very informative and fairly low costly. You'd like it, I'm sure.
