*GUIDE TO READING RESPONSE ESSAYS: Jules Zanger has written about what he calls the evolution of the vampire since the time of Dracula from the “old” to the “new” vampire, or from the metaphoric vampire to the metonymic vampire. The metaphoric vampire is characterized as a demonic, magical, mystical other, while the metonymic vampire is a sympathetic, humanlike outsider.

In so doing, be sure to: —Be thorough in your response to each category. Be specific, detailed, and descriptive. Each response should be one full paragraph. —Draw from a range of specific examples and evidence from the vampire novel.
