Ellen awoke to see a ghostly figure moving through the shadows at her bedside.
"Ellen!" Her name was whispered hoarsely, but she recognized the voice. It was Aunt Kate's.
"What's wrong?" Ellen asked, getting out of bed.
"Dying..."
Ellen sprang to her and eased her aunt down on the bed. "What is it?"
"Danger...vampire."
Ellen found matches and lit the candle on her bedside table. As she studied her aunt's death-like face in the flickering light she was appalled. "I must rouse the others and get a doctor."
"Too late," Aunt Kate whispered. "I'm dying. Don't stay here. Find Barnabas...leave tonight."

The Art of Popeye a Masterwork of the Medium PRE-ORDER
$ 60.00 $ 65.00
The Art of Popeye a Masterwork of the Medium by R.C. Harvey; ISBN #978-1-61345-219-6; $65; deluxe hardcover with special endpapers; full color; 10 inches x 10 inches; 304 pages; over 350 illustrations.
When cartoonist Elzie Segar created Popeye, as a minor character ten years into the run of the Thimble Theatre strip in 1929, little did he know that the world's most famous sailor would still be around over ninety years later and still being offered as a Sunday feature.
To celebrate Popeye, the character, the comic strip and his universe, a feature cartoonist Charles M. Schulz described as “perfect... consistent in drawing and humor,” Hermes Press is publishing the definitive art monograph on the subject.
This 300 plus page book features a comprehensive essay written by pop culture historian R.C. Harvey accompanied by over 350 illustrations of original strip and comic book art, animation art, illustrations, advertising art, products, the Robert Altman film, and everything Popeye. Every aspect of Popeye is explored, from Olive Oyl and Eugene the Jeep to Wimpy and Bluto.
So, if you've ever read the strip, watched the cartoons, seen the movie, or ever eaten spinach and wondered if you'll have super-powers, this new comprehensive history is a must.
