An analysis of the appearance of the moon in James Malcom Rymer’s Varney the Vampire; or, the Feast of Blood presents many opportunities for original research into a text that is often mentioned but not always considered for its contributions to nineteenth-century vampire literature like John Polidori’s Vampyre, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s Carmilla, and Bram Stoker’s Dracula. This chapter investigates one aspect of the Moon within Varney the Vampire, the literary and actual folklore/mythology within the Bannerworth storyline, and discovers a possible Scandinavian influence. This makes Varney unique to its predecessors that relied on eighteenth-century Eastern European vampire folklore and literary vampire folklore and introduces another line of research into the text.
