"Armed with a crucifix, a wooden stake, a bottle of holy water, and a string of garlic, the vampire hunter ventures into the world of the undead to end the existence of those who have already died. This collection of 14 stories shifts the traditional focus of the genre from creatures of the night to the figures who stalk them. Introduced by the archetypal vampire hunter, Dracula's Professor Van Helsing, here are tales from such acclaimed authors as Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Anne Rice, Robert Bloch, and Peter Tremayne - whose eerie tale transplants the character of Van Helsing to modern-day Ireland." --Goodreads.
