Vampires of I Am Legend (novel)

Matheson's novel calls its monsters vampires, but its plague-created undead swarming each night helped establish zombie fiction as well as modern vampire fiction. It gave the undead a medical cause, a bacterium, instead of a supernatural one. Romero said openly that Night of the Living Dead borrowed heavily from it.1
