We don’t normally associate Scotland with vampires, but there is a rich history of mythology and folklore surrounding the undead.
From the Pagan baobhan-sith of the Highlands, a sixteenth-century stranger that was suspected of being a vampire in Galloway, to a vampire that was terrorising wildlife in Lochmaben in the 90s, the vampire is alive … or rather, undead … and well in Scottish history and culture. This is a unique exploration of Scottish history and of a horror hero.
DEE LAWLOR has worked as a freelance writer in the science communication field since 2017 and has authored a bestselling book on microscopes. She has a passion for history and in her spare time has researched the Scottish witch trials. She is a member of RAWS (Remembering the Accused Witches Scotland) and gives regular talks for them. She lives in Udny, Aberdeenshire.
