Want some classic Vampire story

[gardengirl]

Now don't get me wrong; I enjoyed the Twilight series but I would never consider them in the "classic" Vampire story genre. Stoker's is obviously the original, and 'Salem's Lot will always get my vote (also the first King book I ever read). How about Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire? I lost interest in the series after awhile, but the first couple were very good.

Talk ya some Vampire fiction, I will.

Stoker's book is great stuff, solid stuff. Entertaining all the way through, blood-n-thunder goodies. Salem's Lot for sure. ol Crazy Anne's bloodsuckers? Hey, the first three or so Lestat books can't be beat (the rest, though..zzzzz). Twilight--tell ya what, I'd never read the silly thing, but I can't bring myself to knock any book that get's the younguns reading, no sir. Rather see teenagers readin then doing anything else, I spose.

Nobody gonna pop in with Skipp and Spector? The Light At The End? Pretty good.

Although not traditional the Guillermo Del Toro and Justin Cronin series are good vampire books (killing machines).
