Carmilla and The Vampyre

Carmilla is an atmospheric and erotic novella, which strongly influenced the genre and became a source of inspiration for Hammer films. Written at the same time as Frankenstein, when Polidori was also staying with Lord Byron, is often described as the first successful vampire novel.
