Beskrivning
Vampire narratives are generally thought of as adult or young adult fare, yet there is a long history of their appearance in books, film and other media meant for children. They emerge as expressions of anxiety about change and growing up but sometimes turn out to be new best friends who highlight the beauty of difference and individuality.This collection of new essays examines the history of vampires in 20th and 21st century Western popular media marketed to preteens and explores their significance and symbolism.

“Bacon and Bronk have put together an interesting, informative, and entertaining anthology, and I would suggest this book to anyone fascinated with monster lore or the way children’s texts can harbor deep meaning.”—Judy Clemens, author of Beyond the Grave, a Grim Reaper Mystery
