Nun brings vampires back to Catholic Church in new novel

‘The Curse He Chose’ is a new book by Daughters of St. Paul Sister Allison Regina Gliot which was published by Pauline books at the beginning of August.

Vampires have always had a weird romance with the Catholic Church – holy water, crucifixes, and the Eucharist were always seen as the proper weapons against the legendary demonic creatures, but this began to change in the 1990s.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer introduced the character of Angel – the vampire with a soul – and the villainous vampire Spike fell in love with Buffy even before he regained his soul later in the series. Buffy herself stopped wearing her cross soon after leaving high school.
