Best Vampire novels?

[Tito_Villa]

I can't think past 'I Am Legend' but really do need to read 'An Interview With A Vampire' because the film is one of my favourites!

I'm quite fond of Enter, Night by Michael Rowe.

Here's a good guide to all her books on her own website - http://www.poppyzbrite.com/biblio-books.html

She lives as a He now and my favorite of his, though not a vampire story, is Exquisite Corpse

I loved Ray Garton's "Live Girls" and "Night Life."

I like Poppy Z. Brite's stuff.

I want to love Anne Rice, but it's only like. I think she has some great stories, but for my tastes they tend to drag on a bit and be way too slow.

I haven't read a lot of vampire fiction either, but I am Legend and Carmilla are two of the best I've read. 'Salem's Lot was also a standout.

I can't believe I forgot about I Am Legend! I am hanging my head in shame right now. I haven't read The Passage yet, though I've heard good things. Let The Right One In is in my TBR pile and I plan on getting to it this year.

My favorites are The Passage and Interview with a Vampire.

My thought also.I love that story.

I Am Legend was a great novel too, I don't know why I didn't think of it at first.

[TJCams]

Not much into vampires, but I loved Salem's Lot, and plan on getting I Am Legend at some point. My wife however......loved the Twilight series.

I have a few favorites over the years:

'Salem's Lot by Stephen King
I am Legend by Richard Matheson
Fevre Dream by George R. R. Martin
They Thirst by Robert McCammon
The Hunger by Whitley Streiber (love the movie, too)
Let The Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
Interview With The Vampire - Anne Rice
Lost Souls by Poppy Z. Brite
The Golden by Lucius Shepard

[T-Dogz_AK47]

In my opinion, the best vampire novels are the following:

5. Let The Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
4. Interview With The Vampire by Anne Rice
3. Dracula by Bram Stoker
2. Salem's Lot by Stephen King
1. I Am Legend by Richard Matheson

I think Richard Matheson’s 1954 novel, about a sole survivor of a horrific vampire plague is one of the greatest horror stories ever written.

Haven't read many either bit I really enjoyed The Passage and The Twelve. The Strain Trilogy was pretty good. The Nathanial Cade series by Christopher Farnsworth are good too although those are more adventure thriller then horror though.
