| Summary | "Der Vampyr, oder: Die Todtenbraut. Erster Teil" by Theodor Hildebrand is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story revolves around Colonel Alfred Lobenthal and his wife Helene as they leave Berlin due to financial troubles and seek solitude in a remote countryside location in Bohemia. The novel promises themes of love, mystery, and the potential for supernatural occurrences, particularly hinted at through the title and the context. The opening of the novel introduces Colonel Alfred Lobenthal, who is grappling with the consequences of a recent financial crisis that led him to resign from his position and abandon the city life he once cherished. He expresses a desire for isolation to shield his family from societal pressures, which Helene supports, albeit with concern. As they relocate to a rural area near Prague, we see Alfred's struggle to escape painful memories, while Helene remains devoted and hopeful. The initial chapters blend domestic tranquility with underlying tension, as Alfred's past begins to cast a shadow over their new life, alluding to upcoming conflicts between old ties and new beginnings.
