"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

Blood is culinarily almost equivalent to eggs (as in, you can substitute blood for eggs in practically any recipe, and get a similar result, except, I suppose, for the taste).

You can make meringue with blood instead of egg whites.

always felt like vampire media neglects this a lot. There should be some real kickass vampire culinary science going on, but it's always just blood chalices. where's the blood key lime pie?!

“The Vampire's Cookbook”

Someone should write that, sounds like a potential best seller.
