Description



About the Book



Psychic vampires are people who, having never received love, settle for power and become experts at robbing other people of theirs--figuratively sucking their blood. In this, the first book-length treatment of the vampire archetype, Barbara Holt breaks new ground in analyzing how these vampiric people originate, how they operate, how we play into their traps, and how we can break free of their seductive power.



Book Synopsis



Vampires are not just imaginary creatures of fiction or legend--they really exist. They are the people who, having never received love, settle for power instead, and become experts at robbing others of their vital energy. We've all known them.

In her fascinating study of this dark psychological archetype, Barbara Hort looks to traditional myths as well as to their modern equivalents in literature, theater, and film, following a blood-soaked trail to such unexpected destinations as The Silence of the Lambs, "Snow White," and the Broadway musical Gypsy. She offers insight into how psychic vampires originate, how we allow ourselves to be caught in their clutches, and how we can protect ourselves from their seductive influence.
