Recs if you like The Vampire Lestat...

These audiobooks do accents so badly they'll give you second-hand embarrassment. Please let me know what books I should add to this list.

A list of 100 gothic classics which covers over 250 years of literature, from the high-drama castles of the 1700s to the psychological "New Gothic" of today.

Reminiscent of a hitman smoking a cigarette outside the city's most exclusive club while texting their ex-situationship at 3:23 am

Horror that centers around a band or music. Most involve Metal bands and/or Satan. This sub-genre is very campy and fun but it can have some problematic moments (especially the old ones) so tread with caution and check content warnings!

Call me Ishmael for this is my white whale

The goal: to have the most comprehensive complete list of vampire books, fiction and otherwise, in the world. Then? I’ll read them all.

Please send recs <3

As a massive bookworm and theatre nerd, this list was inevitable.

Sometimes Vamps suck more than one way

compiling Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles, New Tales of the Vampires, and Lives of the Mayfair Witches

It's Dracula Day! So we've picked out some of our favorite books featuring queer vampires. Beware of expected bites. (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

I'm an avid vampire book reader and so I thought about making a list to display some great examples of these books and hopefully boost some more obscure ones.

Please feel free to recommend more!

books either about the goth subculture, contain goth characters, or are synonymous with the subculture itself.

An ever growing list from someone who studied vampire lit

lots of gore and/or taboo topics trying to add mostly based off what i’ve read

Books from chapter six Gothic and Romantic of Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix. Each chapter has its own list see my other lists for books from his other chapters. All are paperbacks from the 70s and 80s. To quote Grady Hendrix’s definition of horror “Gothic horror was domestic horror in which affairs of the heart were as important as affairs of the flesh. Is subject matter was families, marriage, houses, children, insanity, and secrets.” (147, Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix).

VAMPIRES VAMPIRES VAMPIRES

Books and Comics that center around at least one character that has some gender fuckery in some direction and are also fantastic stories. The character will either be the main character or a very important side character in the main cast that has a good chunk of story. This list spans genres, mediums, and cultures. This is in no way a complete list, but I have personally read all of them and give them all a full thumbs up

Books that have been made into a TV series or Movie

The best fiction you can find on Vampires and Werewolves and Witches. Feel free to recommend books for this list in comments section.
