L.J. Smith’s first four novels in The Vampire Diaries series came out in the ‘90s and were a huge hit. After going on hiatus for nearly a decade she returned back to the series. With the popularity of Twight, Smith got a call that The Vampire Diaries books were back on the bestseller list. So, …
Anyone who wants to use any of these ideas has my absolute, unfettered permission to do so with no requirements whatsoever. Hannah, Queen of the Vampires has many names. I prefer this one because it is the least generic. One curious detail about this 1973 flick is how it clearly is based on the short …

Now that Mockingbird Lane has aired, the question arises–how was it? The answer rather depends on what you wanted it to be.

Graphic novels and comic book versions of Bram Stoker’s novel continue to become available. One, however, stand out above all others for the sheer beauty of the artwork. Dracula: A Symphony of Moonlight & Nightmares emerged from the pen and brush of Jon J. Muth. Published by Marvel Comics in 1986, the written adaptation vaguely …
Being the Buffy the Vampire Slayer fangirl I am, I am making my way through as many Buffy comics as I can. Today’s comic of choice is the 5-issue mini-series Spike VS Dracula! Every Buffy fan remembers the episode with Dracula, which was one of the most hilarious of episodes, and now readers can get …
Many a fan of the undead may well agree with Anne Rice that we live “in the golden age of vampire fiction.” But don’t we all forever wish more classic vampire films had been made? And as long as we’re wishing, how about some thinking about which stars of yesteryear might have been perfectly cast …
Every October 31st we celebrate Halloween (also known as All Hallow’ Eve), a day of horror movies, scary costumes and masses of candy. We don our costumes, go to parties, trick or treat, and have a deliciously wicked night of fun. But there is so much more to this day than tasty treats and partying. …

I bet when you read “revealing photos” in the title your mind went to a very naughty place. Haha. I am afraid I didn’t mean it in a sexy way, but in a spoiler-filled way. At first glance these new Vampire Diaries photos just look like cool shots of the cast, but a closer look …
Like many a vampire fan, I own multiple adaptations of Bram Stoker’s seminal novel Dracula. They vary considerably in style, medium, approach and (of course) quality. But several are graphic novels, and one of these maybe deserves a bit more publicity. I refer to the All Action Classics version from Sterling Publishing, written by Michael …
Another vampire film, currently in pre-production, hopes to make its mark on cinematic history before too long. Requiem For The Night has its own fundraising page, described as “…something brand new, something that has genuinely not been done before.
