"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.

Bite a really skinny person. It'll crunch.

Haven't you watched the Blade movies? At least in part 2 there is blood cocaine and blood... pudding? Something the Overlord eats.

I imagine vampires can't just eat blood fried potatoes, but also they don't just eat human. Maybe Cicadas and Blood. Blood and Fingernails, with the dry leavings of a Leviathan's self measuring event. Tears can substitute only if shed without sincerity

There's probably some interesting digestive side effects to a body used to a liquid diet.

Can imagine a plotline where the vampire is always disappearing after human-style "masking" meals to sit around with stomach cramps and the runs.

Allow me to introduce you to Spain's morcilla. If you want it crunchy, I guess you can deepfry it.
