Entries describe the appearance, behavior, and cultural origin of mythic creatures well-known and obscure, collected from traditions around the world. ** About the Author Theresa Bane, a professional vampirologist, has appeared on the Discovery Channel's "Twisted Histories: Vampires" and "William Shatner's Weird or What" for her expertise on the undead and is the author of other books on unusual phenomena.
