I love that all the horror shows are coming back to television; sure, most of it’s supernatural romance, but True Blood has more of a supernatural drama feel to it. Romance is only a small part of the show’s plot. Well, maybe more than a small part… but there’s still a lot more to the …
Cliche it may be, but who can doubt the internet created a whole new venue for amateur writers to put their work out there? In other words, the world-wide web proved a godsend for fan fiction. Or maybe from the other end of metaphysical spectrum, depending upon one’s view of the topic! Contrary to popular …
Of all the candidates for “real life vampire” surely the front-runner must be Elizabeth Bathory. Among the highest nobility in 17th century Hungary, her name comes down to us amid horrified whispers–torture, mass murder, bathing in human blood, Satanism. How much if anything actually happened remains a matter for historians. Fans of vampires know her …

It follows the adventures of two teenage twins, Grace and Connor Tempest, after they are shipwrecked and rescued by two very different ships. Connor is rescued by an ordinary pirate ship, while Grace is saved by …
Actors aren’t very bright; this is a universally acknowledged fact. But when Colin Farrell, set to play the dashing vampire-next-door Jerry, in the remake of Fright Night, accidentally insults the film he was working on, –that displays a new level of “Durrrrr.” And Colin Farrell knows this, because he “cringes” when he sees it. Poor …

Eeee! Do you guys realize what kind of implications this video has in it, –the mere fact that Bill is in this video -means- something. And, well, then there’s also the fact that Eric is in it, which for me, is enough to drive me all kinds of batshit crazy. I’m Team Eric, all the …

Every vampire fan knows of Anne Rice’s influential Vampire Chronicles, and we all know about the two film adaptions based on her novels – the flawless “Interview with the Vampire” and the terrible “Queen of the Damned” – but in spite of the disappointment of the last film, Anne is giving it another shot and …
With the upcoming release of his new film, Water for Elephants, Robert Pattinson is busy being interviewed on his new venture. He recently sat down with Entertainment Weekly to discuss the film, but of course, Twilight came up instead. Robert chatted about Breaking Dawn’s PG 13 rating, his shirtless scenes and the death of his …
A coming of age story for every young vampire who feels like he’s just not up to snuff compared with mom, dad, incredibly slutty sister, –not too mention those movie vampires who seem like they get all the charm and moves. Now, add to that some stubby fangs, a stupid name like ‘Dupah’, and a …
Richelle Mead is definitely not a woman that needs an introduction. As the author of the widely popular Vampire Academy series, she is known to nearly every vampire fan out there. I was lucky enough to chat with Richelle on the end of Vampire Academy, the beginning of Bloodines, and much more! Many of our …
There are lots of movies about morons who think they are vampires. There was a movie made to sensationalize the murders committed by Rod Ferrell, vampire-game-obsessed teen, who killed his girlfriend’s parents, and ran off with her, for a short period of time, before being captured by police. Well, in a similar, yet more pedophilic …
Dracula’s Guest is a deleted chapter from Bram Stoker’s legendary novel Dracula which was written with the rest of the story but omitted from the final version published in 1897. Even though it was left out of the book, Dracula’s Guest was eventually published in 1914 in Dracula’s Guest and Other Weird Tales. While it’s …
Sure we all have our big moments of “OMFG EW” from True Blood. I think I have several. My biggest one, I think, is when Eric pics up that redneck and eats him from the torso. That was seriously just… eck. But! Have you ever wondered what the actors and actresses find truly and totally …
If you have been following my writing for some time then you’ll know all about my semi-disturbing love for apocalyptic wastelands. So you can imagine my excitement when I got the March edition of Rue Morgue magazine and right there on the cover were those glorious words “STAKE LAND: ALL-AMERICAN VAMPIRE APOCALPSE.” Yes, there was …
Arlene on True Blood is a very dynamic character; she’s the most human in the series, and in the Sookie Stackhouse novels, she is also the truest human character. This analysis is probably a little pessimistic, but honestly, Arlene represents all that is uncertain, afraid, and naive. She’s a tough, protective mother, who had every …
Fun fact about me Dear Readers, I LOVE comics, especially manga, so when I got my hands on Vampire Cheerleaders I was filled with all sorts of geeky joy! But at the same time I was a bit apprehensive, because come on, it’s cheerleading vampires and how good can that be. Well, believe it or …
I’m a fan of Twilight, the series, and the films. But even I, the big fan, almost closed the book when I read how Bella ended up giving birth. OMG, EW. For those of you who don’t really follow the whole Twilight thing, –watch the movies or read the books, –well. Bella gets knocked up …
Summit Entertainment is the widely known studio behind Twilight Saga flicks, and with the franchise coming to an end with the last two movies, Summit fans are wondering what they’re going to do next.
