Will one faithless TV preacher be enough to defeat a vampire messiah? Reverend Holland Sire never intended to hunt vampires across America, especially not in an election year. He was a small time preacher and a big time party hack working the evangelical vote. But his father's writings led him to the terrible truth. Every character in the Bible, every story, is about them. And some of those ancient undead saints still stalk mankind in the night with their glowing red eyes now turned on the seats of power within the United States. Ancient disciples and new converts to the faith of blood move to feast and conquer. No one is safe and nothing is sacred to the Vampire Christ. Vampire Christ: Blood of the Lamb rips open the veil to reveal the truth in this dark horror satire. The American Church, politics, modern culture, and current events mix together in an unholy splatter that only makes sense, if you can believe in vampires.
