As Halloween approaches Julia Golding and Jacob Rennaker discuss the fantasy origins of two of our favourite spooky creatures - Vampires and Werewolves. Who was the inspiration for the first vampire novel? What are the origins of werewolves? Stop press - there is both a vampire and a werewolf in Tolkien’s works - but where? What evolving metaphors have the two creatures been associated with, ranging from romance, to slavery, to the feudal system and to puberty! Julia and Jacob exchange tips for the best books in the genre so stay tuned to pick up your next Halloween read.
