Carmilla By: Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Kirsten Dunst, and Antonio Banderas lit up Hollywood with their unforgettable vampire performances in Interview with the Vampire — but long before that film, there was Carmilla, the original gothic tale that started it all. Written by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, this mesmerizing story introduced the world to the first female vampire and set the stage for every seductive, haunting bloodsucker that followed.

Deep in a shadowed Austrian forest, a lonely young woman meets a mysterious and beautiful stranger after a carriage accident. As the two grow closer, strange dreams, mysterious deaths, and whispers of the supernatural begin to swirl. The truth — that Carmilla is a centuries-old vampire — unfolds in a slow, hypnotic rhythm that feels every bit as cinematic as Hollywood’s greatest gothic films.

This audiobook delivers all the atmosphere movie fans crave: candlelit halls, forbidden love, and the intoxicating mix of beauty and horror that made Interview with the Vampire a legend. It’s romantic, eerie, and timeless — a story that drips with the same sensual dread and dark elegance that inspired generations of filmmakers.

If you love vampire movies, gothic castles, and stories that blend passion with peril, press play and meet the original queen of the undead.
