bloodthirsty, hunger and bloodlust
Valentine’s Day is almost here, and for some, it’s a dreadful day.

For those of you who do not want to spend their day …

I know what you’re thinking, but seriously, this does exist as a gesture of good faith, –it was made by Daddy No Legs Productions for Anti-Racism Day, which falls on March 21st, next Monday.

While scanning the latest vampire blogs and news I came across a list of the top vampire movies, and well, it was horrible (Van Helsing should never be on a top 10 vampire movie list). So I got my google search on and looked up other vampire movie lists, and of course, those were all …

With the release of “Let Me In,” the American adaptation John Ajvide Lindquist’s novel, a trope that naturally comes to mind is the child vampire. Although as disturbing as it seems shocking, there’ve actually been a fair number of the breed in popular entertainment. One might think that Claudia from Anne Rice’s seminal “Interview With …
Anne Rice wrote on her FaceBook page on Wednesday (July 28th) that she had decided she no longer considered herself a Christian.

Throughout most of vampire fiction there is a hard and fast rule about turning children into vampires… Don’t. Each franchise seems to have it’s own reasons for banning the creation of child vampires but almost all agree it’s a very bad idea.

In this day and age where the vampire is all the rage (quite poetic, don’t you think?), there are numerous ways to kill the demonic creature if you ever come into contact with one.

Within the past few months or so, I have gotten into heavy metal and Goth music; more so, one of my favorite bands of the moment has got to be Type O Negative and they’re commonly known as a Gothic metal band. It makes sense because their music includes sounds of organs penetrating supposed church …
