Just in case Bingo does have a vampire category next year...my go-to recommendation for the polar opposite of 'modern' takes on vampires that are quite horrific is:

"The Necroscope" (series) by Brian Lumley is awesome and I can't believe more people haven't read it.

It's about a guy that can speak to the dead, government CIA organizations, and vampires who want all the power in the world, but want it alone with no other vampires. There are some extremely surreal elements, but telling you would require giving away some plot details. Suffice it to say, these are not romantic vampires and these books are like nothing you've read before.

Hey I have a good idea what you're going through. Almost three years ago now I received surgery for my scoliosis and found myself in a situation similar to yours. Lucky for me I'm a lazy ass who plays video games constantly so that really helped me out.

I don't really know what it is you usually do to pass the time, but if you're looking for a good book I love Necroscope by Brian Lumley.

However if you like video games might I recommend the Silent Hill series?

Brian Lumley author of the Necroscope saga.

I bought them when I was a kid because of the cover art, I was really into drawing skulls and shit back then. I ended up reading them and loved them. They were one of the first complete series I read.

Wow. I don't have much to offer on the first request as zombies terrify me, but I just read the wikipedia page on the New Flesh series and I think I need a hug.

Have you looked at Steakley at all, specifically Vampires? His vampires are very much on the "dead" side of "undead" and the books are extremely unforgiving.

You might also like Lumley's Necroscope -- check out a sample if you can, since the blurb doesn't really match the terrifying, disturbing, unflinching book I recall. Learning he's considered to be Lovecraftian is not surprising to me at all.

For enlightenment on the bodily processes of vampires, I recommend reading the Necroscope series. In my opinion, it handles it best out of any books I've read.
