    BONUS: A Reading of The Vampire Maid

    In this bonus episode of VampCast, I present a full reading of "The Vampire Maid" by Hume Nisbet—a  tale of solitude, obsession, and a seaside cottage where romance curdles into horror. Following last episode’s review, this read-aloud lets you experience the story for yourself: the windswept moor, the enigmatic and enthralling vampire maid, and the nightmare-haunted nights that lead to a chilling revelation. For more bonus content, sign up for the VampCast newsletter at vampcast.com/email

    The Vampire Maid (1890 Short Story by Hume Nisbet)

    In this episode of Vampcast, I pivot from my planned review of AMC’s Interview with the Vampire to unearth The Vampire Maid (1890) by Hume Nisbet—a pulpy, pre-Dracula short story that’s brief, atmospheric, and creepy. I recap and review the tale of an unnamed artist who becomes bewitched by Ariadne, a sickly yet seductive figure in a remote seaside cottage. Sign up for the VampCast newsletter for bonus content: vampcast.com/email.

    The Lost Boys (1987 Movie Directed by Joel Schumacher)

    Welcome back to Vampcast! In this episode, I sink my teeth into The Lost Boys (1987), Joel Schumacher’s gloriously campy horror-comedy set in the not‑so‑sleepy, vampire‑ridden beach town of Santa Carla. I recap the story (spoilers, but I keep one major twist under wraps), spotlight the film’s mix of laughs and scares, and break down its vampire lore. I also run through my Vampcast categories: best character (long live the Frog brothers), best line (that iconic closer), eeriest moment, best track from the soundtrack (Echo & the Bunnymen’s People Are Strange), best bite, and a final judgment on the 1-5 bat scale.

    Dracula (1897 Novel by Bram Stoker)

    Welcome to the very first episode of VampCast! I sink my teeth into Bram Stoker’s 1897 classic, Dracula, the enduring gothic horror tale that has had a major influence on all the vampire stories that follow. I recap the epistolary thrill ride from Jonathan Harker’s ominous trip to Transylvania through the Demeter’s doomed voyage, Lucy’s tragic transformation, Mina’s courage, and the final pursuit back to Castle Dracula—spoilers abound! I break down strengths vs. weaknesses, highlight the book’s eeriest imagery and most chilling “best bite,” and make the case for Mina Murray as the story’s true heart and sharpest mind. Finally, I rate Dracula on a scale of 1 to 5 bats.  To get bonus content about VampCast episodes, sign up for the VampCast newsletter at https://vampcast.com/email/
