Murphy Jr.—a renowned author, historian, and paranormal investigator—to explore the rich and shadowy history of vampires. Together, they trace the evolution of vampire lore from ancient Mesopotamian myths to the iconic figure of Dracula, weaving through tales of Vlad the Impaler’s bloodthirsty rule and the haunting legends of Lilith.
