A female teacher at a church high school is being investigated over complaints that she operates erotic vampire websites.
English and drama teacher Samantha Goldstone has agreed to stay away from St Christopher's Church of England High School in Accrington, Lancashire, after parents alerted her bosses.
Investigations centre on the part-time gothic fiction writer's personal websites and others that promote her book and poems.
One section of the 41-year-old's book, called Gabriele Caccini and written under the pen name Paigan Stone, refers to a female student drugging a vampire male student before they have sex. Her personal MySpace website, which has been shut down, included provocative images and videos.
The site also contained references to her gothic writing which she boasts contains "adult content with vampire eroticism, violence and blood lust".
St Christopher's headmaster Alasdair Coates said: "These concerns have to be investigated appropriately and while we do this the member of staff has agreed to stay away from school. This is not an indication of guilt."
Mrs Goldstone, who lives in Manchester, has been at the school for three years.
Lesley Ham, a spokesman for teaching union NASUWT, said: "I welcome this investigation as it is no doubt causing worry to parents and their children.
"In writing lurid material as a teacher you would struggle to maintain professionalism and standing amongst the impressionable young people you are charged with teaching."
