Vampires in Silent Cinema
Edinburgh University Press (Verlag)
978-1-3995-2574-9 (ISBN)
Despite the enormous cultural impact of Nosferatu (1922) on modern entertainment, from cartoon parodies and collectible toys, the history of vampires in silent cinema is largely unknown.
Vampires in Silent Cinema covers the subject from 1896-1931, reclaiming a large array of forgotten films while adding meaningfully to horror studies through the examination of thousands of primary sources.
