The Gospel of Blood

<p><em>The Gospel of Blood</em> is the autobiography of Nicolas Claux a French morgue attendant whose morbid obsessions led him to grave robbery cannibalism and murder in the early 1990s. It is a bone-chilling chronicle of a real-life vampire who prowled the Gothic cemeteries of Paris unearthing coffins and mutilating the bodies inside. A practicing Satanist Claux escalated to murder after working for a year in several morgues claiming that he had been receiving orders to kill from the corpses he had autopsied.</p><p><em>The Gospel of Blood</em> provides a rare insight into a killer's tortured mind as he relates the graphic details of his crimes including never-before revealed confessions. It is a fascinating look inside the thoughts of a psychotic murderer who has found redemption in prison through art.</p><p></p><p> <em>At long last the Vampire of Paris crawls from his crypt a living legend emblazoned with magical sigils and muttering dire imprecations for these searing pages. A world-renowned artist and bold aesthete of the macabre Nico Claux holds a Japanese cannibal as his role model and calls Satan his homeboy. This reclusive genius goes beyond the pale only to reveal himself as a regular bloke albeit one with a taste for torture and blasphemy. Meant to be read in the darkest night!</em></p><p>Sondra London</p><p></p>
