Vampire Missionaries
April 14 2026
A haunting blend of Gothic horror, religious satire, and supernatural thriller, this is a bold, subversive story that pits faith against fangs in a battle for redemption.
Two young Mormon missionaries, Gabriel and Luke, wake up in their apartment, dazed, blood-soaked—and sprouting fangs. Loyal to their devotion they attempt to carry on their mission, but they quickly learn their newfound thirst isn’t just metaphorical. Bound by blood to an ancient, manipulative vampire called Bishop, the boys are thrust into a spiritual crisis that threatens their faith, their morality, and the souls they vowed to save.
Each failed attempt to resist their monstrous urges pulls them deeper into a web of violence, seduction, and, at times, humorous, damnation. With Bishop’s influence spreading across the small Oregon town like a plague, Gabriel and Luke must confront the seductive power of their transformation and make a harrowing choice: serve their new master and become harbingers of death or defy him—and risk eternal suffering to reclaim their morality.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kathleen Rhodes is a novelist hailing from Oregon. Kathleen spent their formative years in the community of Gresham, Oregon, just below the poverty line.
Working in mental health for twenty years as well as a non-practicing Mormon has granted them invaluable insights into the human psyche, which now come alive in the pages of their novel. The juxtaposition of real-life encounters with those in need of mental health support has fueled Kathleen’s imagination, giving rise to a collection of vivid, fictitious scenarios that captivate readers and challenge their perceptions.
Beyond the realm of healthcare, Kathleen embraces the joys of family life. As a devoted mother to a spirited 10-year-old girl, and a loving wife, their household is also shared with two cherished canine companions, Lady, and Duke, along with a feline friends, Duchess and Snugs. When Kathleen isn’t crafting compelling stories, they can be found indulging in their passions: painting, and gardening.
