Best Vampire novels?

[Sock Monkey]

I don't read a lot of vampire fiction, though I did enjoy Vampire$ by Steakley quite a bit. I like my vampires mean and nasty, not tragic. Motherless Child by Hirshberg is supposed to be pretty good.

I liked Salems lot. Also Interview with a Vampire. Simon Clark's vampiric books are great.

What is your all time favourite vampire novel?

I haven't read a ton, Dracula, 'Salem's Lot, and the novella length Carmilla by Sherdian Le Fanu. Of the three Carmilla was by far my favourite, Le Fanu has amazing prose, and the story was very original.
