Synopsis
The House Of The Vampire by George Sylvester Viereck follows Reginald Clarke, a brilliant, magnetic figure in New York's literary and art circles, who wields a terrifying power: to absorb others' gifts, insights, and even lives to feed his genius. Ernest Fielding, a sensitive young poet and aspiring playwright, becomes Clarke's protégé and possible rival, while Ethel Brandenbourg—the once-celebrated painter whose career Clarke helped eclipse—is drawn into a dangerous triangle. In Clarke's mansion and studio, the boundaries between creator and prey blur as the master declares creation demands sacrifice. When Ethel reveals that Clarke's 'vampire' influence extends to shaping Ernest's mind and even seizing his unwritten work, the circle confronts a monstrous source of artistic power. A climactic confrontation exposes Clarke's claim to be the vessel of a higher art; Ernest's mind is overwhelmed by Clarke's intellect, and by the story's end he is left a hollow, gibbering shadow, while Clarke and his world endure to debate the cost of genius.
