City of Eternals is big news if you're into vampire browser games. I admit to being hopelessly addicted to games like Bloodlines, by Playdom, or Vampire Wars, by Zynga, --both available on Myspace. The problem with these games is the time it takes to play them, and the limited interaction that would be quick to bore the hell out of you if you didn't have to wait hours for your energy and stamina to regenerate. Finally, a solution to boring browser games that consume more time than they're worth! Ohai presents: City of Eternals! The game is being officially launched on ...
No, it's not poetry, --it's an awesome album inspired by shows like True Blood, and the Twilight films, and novels.

Check out the contest details below the interview for more information on how you can win the Vampire Love album! Chazz deMeyer Exclusive Interview Q: Tell us about Vampire Love, from your own perspective; was there any particular message you wanted to send to vampire fans? A: ...

I bet many of you are wondering how someone is turned into a vampire. We all know the most popular way involving lots of blood sucking (they suck, you suck). But if you take a look throughout folklore, old customs and tradition throughout the world you’ll learn that there are loads of ways someone was believed to turn into a vampire. Some of these are pretty ridiculous, but hey, people believed anything back in the day. Before Birth or Shortly After Birth Born at certain times of the year (like a new moon or a holy day). Born with red caul, with teeth, ...
Today’s post is filled with all kinds of bloodthirsty, cruel and evil vampire villains from books, films and television. Enjoy my sweets… 1. Akasha The vampire queen from The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. What makes this vamp villainess? The fact that when she awoke not only did she destroy most of the vampires in the world but had also planned to destroy 90% of the world’s men, keeping only a small number of men for breeding. "We shall live even in this state of living death, we shall love, we shall feel, we shall defy all who would judge and destroy us." 2. ...

Something I get asked on a regular basis, whether it’s in an interview or by a reader, is if I believe that vampires exist. After all I do love vampires and write about them everyday, so you would think the obvious answer is that yes, I do. But truth be told, it’s not that simple [...]
