The "Journal of Vampirology" was intended to address "the broad spectrum of fact, opinion and controversy concerning the phenomenon of vampirism, both in its traditional and contemporary manifestations".
Scans of 10 issues (out of 19 that were published) have been produced so far by the AFU in Sweden.

I hope to upload further issues shortly (and, of course, would welcome hearing from anyone that has already scanned any of those further issues...).
As some of you know, my personal interest is primarily in UFO publications/material but I don't mind doing a bit of work to help get other Fortean material online. (The AFU has a collection of material that extends beyond UFOs and has been willing to scan and host material on, for example, crop circles, cryptozoology, folklore, "Earth Mysteries" and other topics - where I have been able to obtain permissions from relevant editors/groups).

There is frequently a degree of overlap in wider Fortean material with issues relating to UFO reports/discussions. Sometimes that overlap pops up unexpectedly.
For example, I did not expect the Journal of Vampirology to include any UFO material, but (as John Vellutini helpfully pointed out to me) Volume 2 Number 1 discusses the possibility that vampirism has an extraterrestrial origin, whereas the last page of vol. 1, no. 4 implies that the viscera sucker of SE Asia may have a similar origin.
