Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter

Book • 2010
In this novel, Seth Grahame-Smith reimagines Abraham Lincoln's life as a vampire hunter.

The story follows Lincoln from his childhood, where he learns about vampires and vows to kill them, to his later years as a politician and president.

The book intertwines historical events with a fictional narrative involving vampires, suggesting that the Civil War was partly driven by vampire interests.

Lincoln's fight against vampires is closely tied to his abolitionist stance, as he sees slavery as a means for vampires to feed on humans.
