Varney the Vampyre: Or, the Feast of Blood, Part 1 by Thomas Peckett Prest, James Malcolm Rymer
titus_hjelm's review against another edition
The previous review pretty much said it all, but this is still required reading for any proper vampire buff. 'Varney' is often mentioned in books about vampires, but few people seem to have actually read it. I mean, although sometimes 'evil', he is the original suffering vampire, way before Barnabas Collins or Rice's Louis.

While I understand that he was paid by the word, It really showed. By the time he finished some longwinded description, I often had forgotten and even more often had long lost interest before he got to the point.
