Vampire characters are ubiquitous in popular culture, serving as metaphors for society's most sensitive subjects - sexuality, gender roles, race, ethnicity, class - and often channeling widespread fears of immigration, crime, terrorism and addiction. This book explores pop culture's vampires variously as sexual seducers, savage monsters, noble protectors and drainers of human power.
