Continuing our Halloween theme, we want to kick off our week of vampires by introducing you to Montague Summers. Summers was a Catholic clergyman and English author who was well known for his studies of vampires, werewolves, and witches. He translated the 15th century ultimate witch-hunting manual, Malleus Maleficarum. Following his translation, he turned to vampires. He wrote The Vampire: His Kith and Kin in 1928. We have a couple of illustrations from his vampire book above.(images from BF1569.A2 I5 1969 (http://bit.ly/2itaLh8), GR830.V3 S8 1960 (http://bit.ly/2zwAqsA)) -- source link
