    About this ebook

    Lust for blood is the terrifying saga of a boy’s lust for human blood. A passion influenced by his Mother, a Voodoo Princess from Haiti. His thirst for blood led him to stealing blood from patients at the rehabilitation center where he worked as a Phlebologist. Concerned that he would be caught, he needed to find a more reliable source of the red gold. While discussing Leech therapy with his Laboratory partner he learned that a leech could suck two ounces of blood from a human in twenty minutes. His search for more information led him to a Leech Lab in Bangor where he met Jade, a young woman hooked on heroin who would become his partner in creating a Leech Farm in his hometown. Many strange twists in this mix of voodoo and drugs. Heroin and Leeches do not play well together

      LUST FOR BLOOD

      Andre Boisson, Phlebotomist Intern at the M.L. Lambert Long Term Care Facility in Hammond Plantation, Maine rinsed his coffee cup and reached in the refrigerator for a quart container of blood. He poured a half cup of blood over two cups of Purina Dog Chow, stirring the mix while whistling a song he loved by Placebo, Black Market Blood.

      Satisfied with the mix, Andre whistled to his Lab, Buster, and set the dish of dog chow on the floor. Buster bounded to the dish like he’d been on a starvation diet for a month. This was Andre’s favorite part of the day: watching his dog exhibit the lust for blood. A behavior ingrained eons ago, when the first wolves inhabited the earth.

      Andre reached for his favorite cup, poured two fingers of blood from the quart container, and diluted it with one cup of milk. He checked his watch, settled into his Lazy Boy recliner, and turned on CNN while sipping his cherished drink. Why did folks’ bad mouth hematophagy, he wondered. Drinking blood and manufacturing foodstuffs and delicacies with animal blood or human blood is a routine feeding behavior practiced in many societies.

      When he was three, his Mother, Anaya Beaulieu, a Haitian Voodooist, explained the widespread ceremony. Her words were reinforced by an article he read at school about religious rituals and symbols in many cultures that seemingly mirror hematophagy, such as in the transubstantiation of wine as the blood of Jesus Christ during Christian Eucharist. Psychiatric cases of patients performing hematophagy also exist. Sucking or licking one’s
