Vampires Wine & Roses ~ Anthology Edited John Stephens

From the cover:

'Some say Stoker invented the vampire tale. But Byron, Voltaire, and Poe came before. Bradbury, Wells, and Lovecraft eventually followed. As vampires are themselves immortal, so is the fiction they have spawned. And now, for the first time in one stunning volume are assembled writers of equal immortality. Here are classic shorts stories about the undead from such writers as Voltaire, Keats, Dumas, Baudelaire, and Stoker. Featuring a rare story by Anne Rice, a classic chiller by Edith Wharton, and song lyrics by Sting, this eclectic and original collection of vampire stories covers the gamut of genres, from the dark pleasures of Shakespeare to the twilight terrors of Rod Serling. So enjoy the pleasure and the pain. The aching damnation of the thirst. The hot-blooded passion of the hunt. The burning release of the kill. It is only the vampires tapping at your door. And it is time to invite them in.'

All my books are described as accurately as possible. However, I can not look at every page on every book. If I have overlooked something please let me know..
