What is a vampire? Did Count Dracula really exist? Who was he? Then don't forget the vampire hunters - like Van Helsing. And what about other kinds of bloodsuckers: vampire bats, and the deadly assassin bugs. Never heard of them? Well find out here.

Then read Blood in My Eyes: a warning about what happens when you go vampire hunting in Romania. This is one of a series on books on popular non-fiction topics. As with other books in the series, a full colour non-fiction section is followed by a fiction story based upon the topic.

The story appears in two formats: one with simple texts for poor or reluctant readers; the facing pages contain an illustrated "speech bubble" version for those who are just starting to read.
