Is it just me or are there vampires everywhere you look these days? I remember when it was mainly Bram Stoker and Anne Rice who wrote about them. Now there's blood running in the aisles at Barnes & Noble, and seeping from half the stations on television.I blame Stephenie Meyer for the recent bloody mindedness. She has managed to turn vampires from cursed evil creatures into rock stars.
We now have the bad vampire gone good, the misunderstood vampire, the humanitarian vampire, the avenging vampire, the poor but proud vampire and the vampire that only wants to save you from yourself; presumably so he can drain you dry himself. Can the Broadway musical, singing and dancing vampire be next?
Please people, step away from the vampires.
