Because of his fame, Khufu is the subject of several modern references, similar to kings and queens such as Akhenaten, Nefertiti and Tutankhamen. His historical figure appears in movies, novels and documentaries. In 1827, Jane C. Loudon wrote the novel "The Mummy! A Tale of the 22nd Century". The story describes the citizens of the 22nd century, which became highly advanced technologically, but totally immoral. Only the mummy of Khufu can save them. In 1939, Nagib Mahfuz wrote the novel "Khufu's Wisdom", which is based on the stories of Papyrus Westcar. In 1997, French author Guy Brachet published the novel series "Le roman des pyramides", including five volumes, of which the first two ("Le temple soleil" and "Rêve de pierre") use Khufu and his tomb as a theme. In 2004, spiritualist Page Bryant published the novel "The Second Coming of the Star Gods", which deals with Khufu's alleged celestial origin. The novel "The Legend of The Vampire Khufu", published by Raymond Mayotte in 2010, deals with king Khufu awakening in his pyramid as a vampire.
