The book delves into the evolution of the vampire archetype, highlighting its transformation from a romantic hero to a symbol of contemporary cultural shifts regarding the sacred. It examines the vampire's role in reflecting communal violence, as described by philosopher René Girard, amidst the fragmentation of traditional sacred forms. In the modern era, the vampire embodies complex blood relationships with humans, revealing new dimensions of identity and societal dynamics, thus capturing the popular imagination in unprecedented ways since the early 2000s.
