Graphic Tales of the Supernatural
Our stories of monsters and ghosts have origins in our search for the truth. The entertaining and accessible graphic novel format is used to explore the backgrounds of the werewolf, ghost, witch, sorcerer, vampire, zombie, ogre, troll, and giant. Just how did these legendary creatures explain something to us about our collective reality? These books answer that question, and will be a perennial favorite for all of your reluctant and leisure readers. Primary source images and photographs support the main hand-drawn artwork.

Series review:
Graphic Tales of the Supernatural
"
appealing for my low level readers who have an interest in the legend of
vampires. This book would provide them with interesting facts ... in a format that
catches their attention (graphic novels) and is also easy to understand (reading
level 4.0). I think it is very
beneficial to have the historical background presented first in the book, so the
reader can develop a better sense of the setting and characters. The table of
contents, glossary, and index were easy to utilize."
