The author: Rev. Montague Summers (1880-1948) was an English author and clergyman. He is known for his scholarly work on the English drama of the 17th century, as well as for his idiosyncratic studies on witches, vampires, and werewolves, in all of which he professed to believe. His writings on the supernatural remain influential and are seen as foundational texts in the study of vampire and witchcraft lore.
