The Dead Travel Fast Eric Nuzum Stalking Vampires Hardcover 2007

Produced by St. Martin's Press. Written by Eric Nuzum, this 2007 hardcover is a humorous and insightful exploration of vampire culture. In the original myths, vampires are immortal beings who subsist by feeding on the life essence of the living, often possessing supernatural abilities and a aversion to sunlight. Nuzum embarks on a peculiar journey to understand why these creatures have captivated the human imagination for centuries, traveling to Transylvania, attending vampire conventions, and even spending time in a coffin.

This collectible first edition is a witty and engaging read for fans of pop culture and horror. The striking cover art features a vivid illustration of a vampire's face, capturing the book's playful yet eerie atmosphere. Praised by Kirkus Reviews as "chatty, breezy and often hilarious," it offers a refreshingly irreverent take on the undead, making it a delightful addition to any library.
