"There's no book available on the vampire culture today with the range, depth, and diversity of Belanger's Vampires in Their Own Words."--Katherine Ramsland, author of Piercing the Darknessand The Science of Vampires "Belanger gives empathetic access to an emergent new magical-religious community...An important sourcebook for both the scholar and inquiring public."--J. Gordon Melton, Director, Institute for the Study of American Religion, and author of The Vampire Book: The Encyclopedia of the Undead The Code of Silence Has Been Broken For this anthology, vampire Michelle Belanger convinced nearly two dozen real-life vampires to break the code of silence that has kept their fascinating subculture shrouded in secrecy. Sometimes provocative, sometimes surprisingly down-to-earth, these candid firsthand accounts come from both psi vampires who feed on energy and sanguine vampires who drink actual blood. Their true stories shed light on a variety of topics, including awakening to vampirism, the compulsion to feed and feeding practices, donor ethics and etiquette, and vampire traditions and codes of behavior.… (meer)
A very interesting read. Whether you "believe" in vampires or not, there is a large community of people who self identify as such. If you know anyone into energy work, or if you yourself are, this is a book worth getting your hands on. Covering everything from practical to philosophical this book is a series of writings by well known (within their sub culture) members of the vamp community. You will probably find yourself disagreeing with some of them, I know I did, but that never hurts either. ;) ( )
I heard about this book from some friends, who's opinion I respect. While what I knew about modern Vampire culture could fit on the point of a pen, I decided to pick up the book anyway. I was blown away by the skill of the author, and drawn in to the flow of the writing. This is a skillfully written book! A definate rainy day and get comfy read! Michelle Belanger, the author, is one of.. if not.. "THE" expert on modern Vampire culture in the U.S. I found the book entertaining and educating. Two musts for any writing to keep my attention. Definately an exciting addition to my library. ( )
