The undead are everywhere. They’re not just in movies and
books, but in commercials, fetish clubs, and even in your
breakfast cereal. Bloodsuckers have become some of the most
recognizable bad guys in the modern world, and Eric Nuzum
wanted to find out why. He was willing to do whatever it
took —even drinking his own blood—in his quest to
understand the vampire phenomenon. And he found the answer
in Goth clubs, darkened parks, haunted houses, and . . .
chain restaurants.
In The Dead Travel Fast, Nuzum delivers a far-reaching
look at vampires in pop culture from Bram to Bela to Buffy,
and at what vampires and vampirism have come to mean to us
today. And the blood? Let’s just say it doesn’t go with
eggs.
