Detective Comics #517 (1982) Vintage Undead Batman Begins to Lose His Soul, Plus Batgirl Story

Batman returns home and realizes that he has been turned into a vampire by the Monk. When Alfred tries to approach him, Batman almost attacks him, but he controls himself and descends to the Batcave where he won't hurt anybody. Concerned for his master, Alfred calls The Human Target and tells him that they need to set their plan in motion.

A few minutes pass and someone knocks on the door of Wayne Manor. Alfred goes to meet the visitor, who introduces himself as Father Green. The man tells Alfred that he has come to save Batman's soul, for he knows that Batman has been attacked by Louis DuBois (Monk), a man who lived in the 19th Century and was cursed with black magic to become an undead creature, taking with him his own sister, Dala. For decades, the couple of undead have claimed the souls of the living and Father Green has tried to save them, including the Batman. As Alfred learns the truth about the Monk, Batman goes out on the streets and unable to control his instincts, he attacks a criminal who he has confronted before.
