"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.

TranscriptionTumblr post by badsciencejokes:

Nintendo was founded in 1889, making playing cards.

Coca-Cola was founded in 1892.

Levi's blue jeans were invented in 1853.

Dracula was published in 1897, set in that time.

We could have had Dracula wearing jeans, drinking a Coke and playing Nintendo and it would be accurate.

Reply from agentlemandragonsdelights:

This reminds me of something i saw several years ago.

Around this same time, wild west gun slingers, japanese samurai, and pirates all existed. So you could have also had a group of adventurers consisting of these three to fight Dracula. Wild just to consider.

Inspired by the recent post by @LadyButterfly@reddthat.com about how Dracula in fact does feature a wild west gun slinger who kills Dracula by stabbing him with a bowie knife.
