Overview

"WHEN DARKNESS FALLS... WHEN THE UNDEAD RISE WITH A HUNGER FOR BLOOD... WHEN THE HUNT IS ON-AND YOU ARE THE PREY... WILL YOU BE READY? In the inevitable event of a vampire attack, the average citizen will be forced to engage in vicious hand-to-hand combat. To avoid serious injury, disfigurement, or death by exsanguination, you need to know the proper combat strategies and techniques to ward off a stronger, faster, more agile undead opponent looking to drain the life from your body. Are you prepared? With detailed illustrations and firsthand accounts from vampire combat veterans-as well as interviews with actual members of the undead-this manual provides you with the information you need to survive with your life and blood supply intact, including- . Debunking myths, i.e.- vampire flight, animal metamorphosis, physical attraction to humans . Crafting the most lethal vampire weapons from everyday materials . The pros-and cons-of decapitation . Weaponizing Ultraviolet (UV) light against an undead opponent . Using the Domicile Histodiscordant Reaction (DHR), otherwise known as ""The Vampire Invitation,"" to your advantage . Solo attacks, team-based combat, and much more... The Vampire Combat Manual is your indispensable key to survival, whether in a one-on-one battle for blood or a face-off against multiple attackers. Don't wait until the sun goes down-prepare yourself now! WHEN DARKNESS FALLS... WHEN THE UNDEAD RISE WITH A HUNGER FOR BLOOD... WHEN THE HUNT IS ON-AND YOU ARE THE PREY... WILL YOU BE READY?
