top 50 vampire books 

what about Twilight??

I wonder why Dracula's so far down, lol.

twilight is not on here, the people on the site seem to love the anne rice novels more.....not that i am saying twilight is a rip off of them

and yeah i pondered that too nika

I agree with you guys about Dracula, I recon it could have been a bit higher up... Glad Lost Souls did so well though, I love that book.

one word. twilight.

though i love all the ones on the list too!

Blood and Chocolate is not a vampire book, it is about werewolves. And Vampire Kisses is in no way better than Anne Rice or Stephenie Meyer. I'm a little unsettled by this list.

Twilight is TERRIBLE and shouldn't be on the list. But I agree that Vampire Kisses is not better than Anne Rice. There are a lot of really good vampire books missing anyway.

WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

*squee*

Twilight isn't on it!

this is the worst list its all mixed up

Yo... this is the WORST list ever. i havent heard of about all but like 2 series!!! Where's the blue bloods novel books eh? those are REALYL good. the blue moon one is pretty good also and TWILIGHT????? what about that???everyone loves twilight! UGH

twilight sucks
it should be burnt to the core just like edward and his pathetic excuse of a wife

AWESOME! Tons of Cirque Du Freak books on there

I have read 11 of these books... But there are so many good ones missing. How about the Night Huntress Series?

luv luv luv the cirque du freak books

thx!

Dracula is too far down

My fave vamp book ever is Lost Souls so glad it made it so far up this person's list but I totally agree... LOADS (emphasis, not shouting)of great stuff left out to list almost all the books in certain series. Perhaps they haven't gotten round to reading em yet LOL x

Why is Twilight even on the list?

I like the Vampire Dreams collection, 32 juicy vamp tales by Richard Reich. Each story a slice of a different vampire's life...

I've read 29 of those ...wow, i need a life.
oh, well

Where the frick is TWILIGHT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? DAMN

WHERE THE FRICK IS VAMPIRE KNIGHT!UGH!WHATS WRONG WITH WHOEVER MADE THIS ING THING UP!(o ya be warned, i swear alot!)

WHERE IS TWILIGHT!!!!!!! and also.... books u all need to read....if u hav even heard of them..."Boys that Bite" "Stake That" and last but not least..."Jessicas Guide to Dating on the Darkside" all of u, find em. read em. love em.

Why the hell is vampire academy not on there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what the heck? i havent even heard of most of these...
Vampire books to read:
*The Twilight Saga
*The Vampire Diaries
*The Vampire Academy Series
*The House of Night Series
*The Evernight Series
*Bite Me!

there were a couple vamp books that i read that i didnt like though, like "blue bloods," it was kinda weird. The only vamp book that i ever started and didnt finish was "Thirst" it was really creepy lol.

cirqeu du freak!

Well, I have to say that this list is perfectly fine with me. It has listed some classic vampire novels/series. Why isn't Twilight on there? Don't even get me started. Maybe my favorite vampire books aren't on there, but there is nothing wrong with the classics!

Try The Undead Heart, the 1st novel in The Blood Thirst Series. I wrote it for people who wanted more of an adult story that Twilight could give. link

twilight... ?

my top 10 right now is

1.house of night
2.vampire academy
3.vampire diaries
4.night world
5.dracula
6.cirque du freak
7.true blood
8.the vampire chronicals
9.vampire kisses
10.twilight

but i still got to read alot more. i only starting reading 2 years ago befor then i never touched a book

Twilight sucks. I am SO glad it is not on the list...

Ravens Deep and Blood & Ashes by Jane Jordan

Dracula - the original and the best. A stunning book that is curiously underrated and often dismissed as trash, presumably by people who haven't actually read it.

why is there not vampire academy!!!! thats the best book ever!!!

night world

i'm glad twilight isn't there. it wouldn't deserve that.

ive read 8 on the list but what about

night world
vampire academy
the drake chronicles
house of night
true blood

pathetic. Seriously? Why the heck isn't Twilight there?

I can tell you right now why most of the books you guys are whining about not being on there are not on there.

Twilight: the internet's laughing stock. Seriously, it's light fluff reading at best, nothing revolutionary.

Vampire Academy: see Twilight. Admittedly better, but still fluff. I coudn't finish the first book because it was just blah for me.

House of Night: more fluff with a Mary Sue tossed in.

Vampire Knight: learn the difference between a book and a manga.

In conclusion: cheesy romance does not a good vampire novel make.

Awww.... no Vampire Diaries? oh well.... lol

One of the Vampire Diaries books actually did make the list but it's further down, nice to see Cirque Du Freak on the list.

My list:
Fiction: Clarimonde by Theophile Gautier, sumptuously purple prose. Le vampire by Alexandre Dumas (OK, it´s play, but I read it in book form) has delicious old dialogue and atmospheric Gothic settings. , Carmilla and various versions of Dracula.
Non-fiction: Romancing the vampire by David J Skal, Dracula by Elizabeth Miller, Dracula: Connoisseur´s guide by Leonard Wolf.
Delicious!

Vampire books I've read until now:
- Twilight( of course)
- Ever more
- Dracula
- Vampire clan( it's really fantastic)
Maybe that's all! :D

No "I Am Legend" or "Let the Right One In"? WTF???

where the vampire knight WTF

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh­hhh NO VAPIRE NIGHT ORTWILIGHT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH THIS THING IT NEEDS A UPGREDE LIKE RIGHT NOW!

i really like that list

Twilight was one of the worst series I have ever read. You guys need to calm down give that shit a break.
