@RobTheVampire @Kieran_M_Taylor The book titled 'The Highgate Vampire' by Sean Manchester. It contains a lot of fake sightings and equally contrived photographs.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@RobTheVampire @Kieran_M_Taylor That was written in the 1980s, it is not a Victorian penny dreadful from Stoker's era.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@RobTheVampire @Kieran_M_Taylor When I was researching my book 'Haunted Highgate', 'Gambado on Horsemanship' (1811) was the closest to a penny dreadful I found relating directly to Highgate.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@Kieran_M_Taylor @RobTheVampire They don't exist, the legend of the 'vampire' is not based around Victorian fiction but around sightings which were documented 1960s-onwards.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@RobTheVampire @Kieran_M_Taylor There were no penny dreadfuls written about the 'Highgate Vampire'.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@misssamperrin @Norfolkboy80 I wonder why he has assumed that you are English? ;-)

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@JoeMeekSociety I agree.

[Della Farrant @HiddenHighgate]

@JoeMeekSociety It has never been released, sadly, and the producers will not release the footage to me incase it comes to fruition one day. 21 years on now.
