  Sink your teeth into the cult classic vampire novella that inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Fear sweeps the countryside as people fall victim to a strange illness.  After a peculiar accident, beautiful Mircalla becomes a ward at Laura’s family home.  Soon, friendship blooms between the mysterious Mircalla and curious Laura.  Love is in the air, but so is something deadly.  Will Mircalla’s secret cost Laura her life? Carmilla, originally published in 1872, is one of the first vampire novels ever written, predating Dracula by twenty-six years. Carmilla, with its themes of vampirism and homosexuality, shocked the standards and stereotypes for women set in the Victorian era. Today, Carmilla is considered the original archetype of female and LGBTQ vampires, and Le Fanu’s influence is seen throughout vampire fiction.

  Major Hesketh Vernon Prichard, DSO MC FRGS FZS was born on the 17th November 1876 in Jhansi, North-Western Provinces, India, then part of the British Empire. 
   
  His achievements in life, beyond his literary career, are both voluminous and startling. 
   
  He was an explorer, adventurer, marksman, game hunter and first-class cricketer.  In his literary career he wrote short stories, novels, travel pieces and was also a newspaper correspondent. 
   
  His father died a few weeks before his birth and his mother, Kate, with whom he co-authored much of his literary output raised him herself.  They returned to England where he was educated and excelled at cricket.  After school he trained to be a lawyer but never practiced.  At 19 he was publishing the first of his stories.   
   
  Over the following years he was commissioned to write many pieces as he explored and journeyed around the world including to Haiti, Labrador and Patagonia, where little was known and he thought it his duty to investigate and inform others of his findings.  On some of these his mother also travelled with him as they continued their literary journey. 
   
  He managed to become part of the Great War effort at 37, although was considered too old for front line duty.  Instead he turned his skills to helping establish an Army school of Snipers to mitigate and improve the skills of British snipers and their then appalling losses.  In this he was eventually successful and is credited with the saving of thousands of lives. 
   
  Hesketh Prichard died from sepsis on the 14th June 1922, at Old Gorhambury House, in Hertfordshire, England.  He was 45. 
   
  His mother, Kate, survived him and died in 1935.
