EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood-engraved illustration from 1853 brings to life the eerie world of "Varney the Vampire" by Thomas Peckett Prest. The dark and mystic atmosphere is palpable as we are introduced to Chapter One of this gothic tale. Set in London, England, during the middle of the 19th century, this haunting image transports us into a realm where evil lurks. The engraving depicts a chilling scene: a vampire sinking his fangs into the neck of an unsuspecting victim. The artist skillfully captures the fear and desperation on both their faces, emphasizing the horror that unfolds before our eyes. With meticulous detail, every line and shadow adds depth to this macabre tableau. As we delve deeper into this narrative filled with occult themes and mysticism, it becomes clear that Varney is not your ordinary vampire. His presence embodies malevolence and intrigue, leaving us eager to uncover more about his sinister nature. Accompanied by women dressed in period attire who seem entranced by Varney's aura, we can't help but wonder what role they play in his wicked plans. This print serves as a visual gateway into an enthralling story that explores themes of darkness and temptation. Thanks to The Granger Collection's preservation efforts, this historical artwork allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its contribution to English literature. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation, "Varney the Vampire" continues to captivate audiences
