Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram. 3 Comments

Hi- Nice article, but you may want to rethink your approach to Varney the Vampire. He was not a great guy and he never said "Isn't it great to be a vampire"— (He murdered without mercy and he hated being a Vampire- so much so he attempts suicide several times). I wrote my PhD dissertation on the book, so if you have any questions, I am happy to help. For more information, you may want to see my Critical Edition of Varney the Vampire published by Zittaw press. There is a great introduction on the Penny Dreadful press plus a lot of information about Pre-Dracula, Victorian Vampire lore.
Best wishes to you-!

Thanks, Curt. I'd never heard of Varney the Vampire before Dr. Logan brought it up at this panel and made that comment.
Perhaps I should read a book by LA Banks?
