Blood Across the World: An A-Z of Vampires and the Damnedby D. J. BlackVampires are everywhere. Their names shift across cultures, their forms change with each legend, but their hunger is eternal. Blood Across the World is a gothic anthology of short stories, each one reimagining a vampire myth from around the globe. Told in a haunting, immersive style. From the shadowy Baobhan Sith of Scotland to the winged Estrie of Jewish lore, from the lightning-eyed Impundulu of Africa to the restless Strigoi of Romania, these tales will draw you into graveyards, forests, and forgotten villages where the undead wait.
Every story is paired with a folkloric note, and an original gothic sketch, bringing the myth to life on the page. Together, they form an A-Z bestiary of the damned unlike any other. For lovers of vampire horror, folklore, and dark fantasy, this collection will sink its teeth deep and not let go.
