"Vampires Are:" Chapter 2 - First Real Vampire Interviews

Welcome to the Connected Realms Podcast! Enjoy Episode 2 of 8 on the book, "Vampires Are:" by Vampirologist Stephen Kaplan.

This nonfiction account of what the Vampire Research Center uncovered will provide you insights into the reality of vampires that few, if any authors have ever covered. Dodging all the cheesy fiction of vampire lore, and doing away entirely with modern made-up fantasies about blood sucking lust fests, Kaplan and his team inform us about what they discovered when they found and interviewed approximately one dozen real life vampires from all across the United States.

So cozy up, dim the lights, lock your doors and grab the nearest crucifix, because you're in for a wild ride.
