The Dinner Party If you ask me, this episode was all about illustrating how incredibly impulsive Damon can be; and how it’s his biggest weakness. Sure there was the whole side dish of Elena finally being convinced that they have if anything, a microscopic chance at beating Klaus, but mostly, this was the episode where …
Okay, I guess that’s putting it a little harshly. No worries, I didn’t reveal any specific spoiler, but Charlaine Harris has announced the end of the Sookie Stackhouse series; it’s coming after another two books in the series, at most. According to Harris, the one book series was taking over, and it’s time to branch …
Here at Vampires.com we have a lot, and I mean A LOT, of people leaving comments begging someone to turn them into a vampire. It’s an everyday thing and honestly, I usually just ignore these hundreds of requests. But while reading the latest ones it started to get me thinking – why? Why do you …

The catch is, this isn’t actually a vampire movie. It’s a movie about a guy who has I guess, completely lost his marbles, who goes around Eastern Europe… killing harmless old men by pounding stakes through their hearts. And it’s directed, not by the -director- of Troll 2, but by the child star in Troll …

Can you believe it? Well, maybe in the first season, when Caroline Forbes was synonymous with everything girly, and hyper-feminine and fashionable. But now she’s become something of a bad girl, aside from her keen fashion sense, and penchant for romantic foibles. So all right then, maybe it isn’t such a stretch to believe the …
Every once in a while I get the urge to live near a big city, like Reno, or New York, but then I remember I’m practically broke, and can barely afford to live in any city, let alone a tourist attraction city like Reno. But, the urge comes from events like the one in the …

Now, okay, part of you is probably saying “Yay, a new vampire movie!” while the other part is like, “Wait, who?” Well, no worries, trust me, you know who Abigail Breslin. She’s the cute little chick from Zombieland, remember? Con Artist Chick, of the shortness? Anyway, now she’s starring in ‘Innocence’, a new vampire movie …
Cry Wolf This episode is basically the last battle between vampires and werewolves; in fact, the vampires and witches in Mystic Falls may well have seen the last of the werewolves for a very long time. Apparently, the werewolves in this universe, have a very short attention span; easily distracted, with variable goals in mind. I …
‘Hello Darkness’ reminds me of old music… you know the song, “Hello darkness, my old friend”? Old folky hippy music from the days of yesteryear, but the movie is actually pretty decent sounding, unlike… old hippy folk music from the days of yesteryear. Except, well, the vampire in this movie was turned during the “angry, …
If you love True Blood, Sookie Stackhouse, and the universe created by Charlaine Harris, in which vampires are in politics, werewolves are just as American as we are, and fairies walk around getting ear shortening surgeries… then you’ll love the game ‘Dying for Daylight’ created in collaboration with Charlaine Harris. The lovely people behind the …

I believe it was me who said that actor Ben Walker would look smashing as Abraham Lincoln, –and so far, I was incredibly accurate with my prediction. There are quite a few other little factoids that the blogs have managed to scrape together, mostly via intercepted emails, and probably with lots of waste-basket digging after …

Daddy Issues Sorry it’s taken so long this time, people. usually we’re on top of things like, gosh, the MOST awesome vampire show ever after Buffy and True Blood. I actually lived in an airport for three days this past week, so as you might imagine, my skills just weren’t as up to snuff as …
A new squeeze will be added to the cast of Vampire Diaries, –and since everyone but Damon is tied up in romantic drama (okay, well, if you count his passionate love of Elena, then he is too), she’s going to be Damon’s new ladyfriend. Personally, I don’t think the addition of another Damon groupie is …
You know how crimes caused by teens are so often idiotically blamed on video games? Well thanks to the vampire craze, parents and law officials are now blaming many teenage crimes on shows like “True Blood” and books like “Twilight.” Unfortunately, this is not a joke, but a very sad truth. According to Don Rimer, …
As most of us learned in school, Egypt is one of the world’s first great civilizations, but according to many vampirologists, Egypt was also the birthplace of vampires.
