Vampires, Burial, and Death: Folklore and Reality by Paul Barber

5.0

Now I understand why this book has been sited over and over. There is SOOOOO much information in this book that I have yet to read anywhere else. I can't even begin to go over the information that is in this book. And it's NOT because I haven't read many books. I own quite a few books regarding historical vampires, way more than I care to admit, and all of them I have read at least once. This is definitely on my top five favorite list. The best part is that it's not JUST about vampires, it's also about burial customs and there are even some bits of cultural information. I just finished the book and already I want to start reading it over!
