"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.

I was hinting that I stopped myself from saying "victim." The "er" is kind of like saying "uh" when you're trying to think while talking, except it implies that I kept myself from saying something I realized I probably shouldn't say.
I was commenting Victor.
Well, then I'm lost - why would you say that?
It is a common vampire name trope and the mixture of victim and donor
Ahhh... Thanks for the explanation. Seems almost obvious in hindsight, but I'm not sure I'd ever have figured it out otherwise.
