"Volker Elis Pilgrim (1942-2022) was a bestselling author in Germany, publishing a range of controversial books such as his study of the evils of mother love, a guide to sexual emancipation, and four massive volumes which psychoanalyzed Hitler as a sexually deranged serial killer. The Vampire Man, completed just before his death, is his first book in English. It has an important message: there are vampires among us, killing us softly in our sleep.
His book presents a brilliant investigation into a phenomenon that affects millions of people. Pilgrim has detected a sleep disorder which he describes as ""an energy transfer"" between two people who sleep in different rooms, even in different buildings. It's a kind of clandestine relationship. His theory is that there is a taker, who feeds off the spirits of someone else in their sleep - and robs them even of the will to live. Such takers, Pilgrim believes, have a vampire personality.
Their victims are donors. They suffer from restlessness and deep disturbance in the night and are mystified about what causes their disorder. Pilgrim's book is a warning - and offers help to donors so they can avoid ""nightly energy robbery.""The author was once described as ""the most interesting person on Earth."" The Vampire Man introduces the English-reading world to a profound and towering genius - and his book may even save lives."
