Drawing from social theory and the anthropology of religion, this book explores popular media's fascination with dreams, pagan gods and goddesses, vampires, and spirits. Dreams, Vampires and Ghosts does so in the light of anthropological studies of societies in which human persons are not merely a source of entertainment, but a lived social reality. Films and programs explored include Buffy the Vampire Slayer, True Blood, Twin Peaks, Star Trek and the films of Hitchcock. Louise Child draws attention to how they both depict and challenge ideas and practices rooted in psychology, while quality television has also facilitated a wave of programming that can explore the interaction of characters in complex social worlds over time. As well as drawing on theories of film from Freudian psychology and feminist theory, Dreams, Vampires and Ghosts also uses approaches derived from a combination of Jungian film studies and anthropology that offer fresh insights for exploring film and television. This book draws attention to explicit and subtle ways in which cinematic narratives engage with myth and religion while at the same time exploring collective dimensions to social and personal life. It advances new developments in genre studies and gender as well as contributing to the growing field of implicit religion using in depth analyses of communicative dreaming, the shadow, and mystical lovers in film and television.

Have you ever seen a Vampire, a ghost, or the undead? I've seen them, I've been touched by them and I have had a Vampire look at me in wonder as if contemplating my existence. Society may never believe in ghosts or vampires, perhaps no one will believe but I tell you, they are real. Real, like a bump in the night, a whisper only you hear, a touch but there is no one else in the room. Dreams are those things we see but are too afraid to tell, they are the pathway tour soul and sometimes they are the only things that make us human. What is an immortal? Do they love, to they feel for those they fall in love with? Journey with me, come into my world and allow your dreams to touch mine.

"Tales of seduction... and death. In one of the most terrifying collections every assembled., Voices From the Vaults brings together 20 irresistibly bizarre tales of vampires and vampirism from the dripping pens of such all-time masters of the macabre as F. G. Loring, Robert Bloch, Bram Stoker, Théophile Gautier, Alexis Tolstoy, Peter Underwood, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and many others. Here are classic accounts of the undead--some fact, some fiction--from all over the world, including the histories of such legendary members of vampiredom as the Italian Count, whose castle bell-rope was made of human hair; England's Countess Sarah, who had children served up at her midnight feasts; France's lovely Clarimonde, who made a specialty of seducing young priests; Serbia's sentimental vourdalaks, who devoured only their closest relatives and dearest friends -- and many more stories. Sensuous, shocking, and unforgettable, Voices From the Vaults is not a book for the faint of heart. Within these pages are recorded some of the scariest -- and most seductive -- stories ever told anywhere on earth... or beneath it!" --Back cover.

′...this is a book with an interesting thesis, and a welcome contribution to the literature. Pile has opened up a productive theoretical and empirical space for further study and exploration′ - RGS-IBG Urban Geography Research Group What is real about city life? Real Cities shows why it is necessary to take seriously the more imaginary, fantastic and emotional aspects of city life. Drawing inspiration from the work of Walter Benjamin, Sigmund Freud and Georg Simmel, Pile explores the dream-like and ghost-like experiences of the city. Such experiences are, he argues, best described as phantasmagorias. The phantasmagorias of city life, though commonplace, are far from self-evident and little understood. This book is a path-breaking exploration of urban phantasmagorias, grounded empirically in a series of unusual and exciting case studies. In this study, four substantial phantasmagorias are identified: dreams, magic, vampires and ghosts. The investigation of each phantasmagoria is developed using a wide variety of clear examples. Thus, voodoo in New York and New Orleans shows how ideas about magic are forged within cities. Meanwhile vampires reveal how specific fears about sex and death are expressed within, and circulate between, cities such as London and Singapore. Taken together, such examples build a unique picture of the diverse roles of the imaginary, fantastic and the emotional in modern city life. What is "real" about the city has radical consequences for how we think about improving city life, for all too often these are over-looked in utopian schemes for the city. Real Cities forcefully argues that an appreciation of urban phantasmagorias must be central to what is considered real about city life.

Nine stories, most—but not all—featuring vampires. A vampire and a sorceress take a wrong turn while evading pursuit, ending up someplace they don’t want to be. An old man with bad intentions lures two little girls into a deserted playground. On a lighter note, a vampire reluctantly shares his old farmhouse with an eccentric sculptor (she has a lease).
