This review is from: Classic Vampire Stories-p (Paperback)
An anthology of older vampire tales, and a well put together one. Certainly quite a few of the better and more ineresting variety to be found here.
This group of stories just about averages 3.50, so pretty well picked from the older crowd.

Dracula's guest employs some of the creep local folk tales and legends. The significance of a blue flame from the ground, the howling of wolves, that sort of thing.
Here, a coachman in a coach drawn by midnight black horses, picks up a traveller. He is growing increasingly freaked out all the time.
