Revenge at Last! – Father of True Blood Sued by Quentin Tarantino

Revenge at Last! – Father of True Blood Sued by Quentin Tarantino

Okay, normally, I would never cover something like this, –and at some point, someone will probably say something about it not being really all that relevant. But it was so funny, I had to; so forgive me, dear audience, because I’ve fallen to the temptation of humor. Right now, Alan Ball, the father of True …

Gilles de Rais – Medieval Vampire

Gilles de Rais – Medieval Vampire

Had Bram Stoker decided to make his vampire nobleman French instead of Eastern European, there lies within that land’s history a model as appropriate as Vlad the Impaler. Looking at the life of Gilles de Rais (1404–1440), one can hardly imagine a better man to deserve the title “Monster.” In fact, it remains curious how …

The Meaning Behind ‘The Vampire’ by Rudyard Kipling

The Meaning Behind ‘The Vampire’ by Rudyard Kipling

Everyone that reads poetry occasionally comes across a poem that doesn’t make complete sense to them. While reading some classic vampire poetry I came across such a poem – The Vampire by Rudyard Kipling. Had this poem not had “vampire” in the title I would have never thought it was about vampires at all. But …

Bram Stoker’s Dracula is one of the most popular novels of all time, this ground-breaking and highly influential story has sold millions of copies and has been in print for over a hundred years, which means there are dozens, if not hundreds, of editions of this one book.

Bring the ‘Harker’ Video Game Back!

Way back in 2008 Double Helix Games teased all of us vampire-lovin’ gamers with “Harker,” a game featuring a badass vampire hunter loosely based on Jonathan Harker from Bram Stoker’s legendary novel “Dracula.” The developers waved a badass little promo in front of our bloodthirsty eyes and then they just took it all away!

Colin Firth to Play Vampire in ‘Stoker’

I’m so excited! Colin Firth is going to put some fangs in, and he’ll be joined by Nicole Kidman, and the super-cute Mia Wasikowska, –which is a more complicated way of saying “that adorable chick from Alice in Wonderland”. I’m excited because duh, not only is this a new vampire movie with big names in …

The Perfect Breed

The Perfect Breed

While scanning recent vampire flicks I came across The Perfect Breed, a vampire film that somehow passed my radar. Gasp! After doing a bit of research I’m surprised that the movie didn’t get more recognition, the story is interesting enough that it deserves a mention. So today we’re giving this unknown movie some Vampires.com lovin’! …

Vampire Media Lies, Hot New TB Poster, Damon and Elena not Happening Soon, in this Week’s Vampire Bites

Vampire Media Lies, Hot New TB Poster, Damon and Elena not Happening Soon, in this Week’s Vampire Bites

Sad but true about that Damon and Elena thing; I have to say, I’m on ‘Team Damon’ if such a thing exists. Not that Stefan isn’t cool, but Ian Somerhalder just gets my juices flowing… Nina Dobrev says that Elena’s really just into Stefan right now… but there’s still hope for Damon in the future. Even …

Humans, Vampires, Zombies and Aliens all Together in ‘The Kitchen Sink’

Humans, Vampires, Zombies and Aliens all Together in ‘The Kitchen Sink’

You wouldn’t think that a script about a human teenager, a vampire, and a zombie who must save their town from an alien invasion would actually be made into a movie, but believe it or not, it will be. The film idea is so out there and over the top that it has been appropriately …

Midnight Son: Is it Bloody Gross?

Midnight Son: Is it Bloody Gross?

I don’t know why it is exactly, but when I think of vampires drinking blood, I think of it as natural, sexy, mysterious; whatever. But when I think of people consuming blood, all I can think of is the effect air has on large puddles of blood: it turns into dark red jelly. Naturally, this …

Vampire Diaries: Caroline’s Character Transformation

Vampire Diaries: Caroline’s Character Transformation

I saw some pretty speculative updates about how Caroline’s handling life right now, and since she’s my favorite character, I couldn’t resist doing some kind of abbreviated timeline; she’s gone through some big time changes, and not all of them have to do with being undead now. She started out as a fringe character, bitchy, …
