Carmilla (1872) remains the most famous, and original, lesbian vampire story of them all. Set in the shadowlands of old Styria, J. Sheridan Le Fanu's gothic-horror classic tells of the strange lust and symbiosis between an innocent young girl and Carmilla, the archetypal "fatal woman" and sexual predator. "Carmilla" has been the inspiration for numerous vampire films, including Hammer's famous "Karnstein Trilogy": The Vampire Lovers, Lust For A Vampire, and Twins Of Evil. This new dedicated ebook edition of vampire homoerotica includes a new and illuminating introduction, and also the bonus story "True Story Of A Vampire" (1894) by Count Stenbock, now recognised as the first male homosexual vampire tale.
