Memories were moving pictures in which meaning was constantly in flux. They were stories people told themselves. Using the glom — the netherworld of memory and shadow, a space the vampires could access at will in order to read and control minds — was like stepping into a darkroom, into a lab where photographers developed their prints, submerged them in shallow pans of chemicals, drying them on nylon racks.
— Mimi's thoughts on the Glom.


The Glom is an alternate dimension that only Vampyres, Wolves or Gods can reach. Humans can only be brought in by the mean of a supernatural person. The vampires use the word “glom” to describe two things: a direct line of consciousness that can be used for vampires to commune with one another, or to control the minds of other humans or vampires. It also describes the twilight netherworld that vampires can access—an alternative plane in the universe.

There Exist Five Factors of the Glom: Known as:

1) Telepathy, the ability to read “minds,

2) Suggestion, the ability to plant a seed of an idea in another mind (it must be done subtly, so the other believes it’s his or her own),

3) Compulsion, the ability to issue a direct order to another’s mind,

4) Suppression, the ability to overcome the will of another,

5) Consummo Alienari, the little-known fifth factor, allows complete control over another’s mind, but is highly dangerous.”
