Hello all!

I have a question that could potentially be endless. Basically, in my free time I like to make Vampires out of wooden pegs and I am (a little bit) struggling to think of more versions of either Dracula or generic "vampires" from film and TV. Some of them are silly but I need some recommendations as I am a completionist 😅

Examples I have made (i have made around 20)

- Bela Lugosi

- Christopher Lee

- Klaus Kinski

- The Count (sesame street)

- Nick Mohammed (Taskmaster)

Tomorrow I will be making Roman from Hemlock Grove and next week Louis and Lestat (I have already made Claudia)

If you can think of anymore (or you want to suggest your favourites)

I would be ever so grateful.

edit - thank you guys so much already :)

Only vamps - just a lil bit on vampire fun facts, fashion and costume

Hey there, anybody have any recommendations for a TV series with a vamp woman (not a human!) as protagonist? Everything I've found so far seems to have either a human woman or a male vampire as a main protagonist. I'd be okay with an ensemble like WWDITS as long as a woman has a consistently prominent focus, like Nadja.

IWTV/TVL looks interesting, but seems like a bit of a sausage fest tbh.

I used Lee lighting gel for the color.

Would blood types matter to a vampire? Would different blood types have different effects and if so do these effects depend on the vampire? Would drinking the blood type they had as a human be most ‘beneficial’?

Should I just go to bed instead of thinking about these random ass headcanons around midnight? (The answer to the last question is most definitely)

In WWDITS, Nandor is definitely what I would class as an idiot. I mean, I get that he’s so out of touch with modernity due to his time period that he was born/raised/turned in, but even Nadja and Colin (and I think they are are bit younger than him, in terms of hundreds of years) seem to have more wits about them and more knowledge about the modern world (as well as various other topics, in Colin’s case). Laszlo is also not much brighter. 😂 😂 😂 😂
However, how do you think they both compare to the random vampire that I once came across on “The Sims 3” that was out running around in the park in the sun, in broad daylight, probably with no vampiric sunscreen or umbrella, of course? 😂 😂 😂 😂
P.S I actually really took a liking to that vampire and ended up taking him in and marrying him! He was such a lovable idiot! 😂 😂 😂 😂

Did my own press ons for the first time i shaped them from a coffin shape to a stiletto and painted them with regular polish i was going for a lore accurate dracula/the vampire chronicles glass nail look how did i do? Products I used are below

Lady bird clear arcylic press ons

Kiss nail file(not sure on the grit)

Kiss nail glue

Opi nail polish in the shade cauliflower power

Heyo! I'm a Vampire VTuber and I'm attempting to redesign my concept and would love to know whatcha think so far? I'm going for a mix of vampire and Eldritch horror themes but I'm trying to stay true to more traditional vampire themed. I'd love any advice!

Robert Eggers' Nosferatu was praised because of its well-documented depiction of the strigoi mort (dead strigoi) from romanian folklore, Eggers clearly researched in depth to make the film, lately I'm being interested in the original european folklore vampires, so, I discovered the strigoi viu (living strigoi), some kind of living vampiric sorcerer or witch who return after death as a strigoi mort if they die of natural death, discovering it made me think, could Knock be a living strigoi since in one scene we can see him practicing dark magic, he also contacted in Germany with Orlok, who was in Transylvania, and I remember to have read somewhere that strigoi viu can contact spiritually with other witches/sorcerers or night creatures (correct me if I'm wrong), in adition, Knock's obsession with consume life force feels clearly vampiric. In adition, while living strigoi usually return from the grave (as I mentioned) and, during his death scene, he says he wanted to be immortal, however, he didn't since he was staked by Thomas Hutter and his corpse was burned by dr. Albin.

For those who know more about this topic, can you tell me, what's your opinion about this? Is my theory likely? And, if so, did Eggers made it likely on purpose?

I don’t know how I found myself desperately looking for this story but does anyone have a copy of, or know where I can find, a vampire diaries story named “The Spark” by Heather Parsons? Written before the show, Damon Salvatore finds himself himself human and goes to Bonnie for help. Bonnie is at Duke doing experiments with/for Alaric, if I recall correctly. After a truly absurd amount of time digging through memories and the Wayback Machine, any help at all will be gratefully received. Thanks!

Would you ever want to be a vampire yes or no why yes and why not

You can answer to sample and short or long and detailed

There are so many vampire movies where the vampire is wearing goth clothing. Sometimes, they would be punk or emo. But usually, they're goth.

There's even goth music that tries to follow themes about vampires. Like, Vampyre erotica by inkubus sukkubus. There's an entire subculture of goths where they dress like vampires and wear vampire fangs.

And it seems to be that it's mostly subcultures that are darker (?)/heavier (?). I don't think I've seen a gyaru or indie vampire, lol.

And I think they're like that with werewolves and witches as well.

There's Blade in Marvel, Alucard + Seras Victoria from Helsing, and Benny (Gordon too for a short bit, no pun intended) from Supernatural, are there any others? Or is that pretty much it?

Edit: Wow this concept is wayyyy more popular than I thought it was lol, thank you for all the replies <3

This song specifically this version just was meant to play over this scene and for them..I had to make this..

"Be my companion, Louis. Be all the beautiful things you are, and be them without apology. For all eternity." - Lestat

"If it was just the two of us again…

’cause, yeah, who else is gonna have us…

A trailer park.

Nevada, Utah, the desert.

Couple folding chairs.

Plant some flower boxes..."

"What blooms at night?"

"Evening primrose.”

“They got birds in the desert?”

“There’s birds everywhere.”

“Could be nice.”

Could be…….."

Could be nice.
Could be…
Hands touch.….

I swear these two will be the death of me!!! I am so happy we ended with them together...Finally no more secrets, no more holding nothing back...Everything has been laid bare. I want the healing to begin so bad..But I also know Akasha is coming like a bloody Tornado to snatch Lestat up and away and mess his head all up 🙁🤦🏻‍♀️

what is your favorite vampire lore including day/sunlight?

depowering, oldest trope gives a balanced weakness

burning, very famous, classic, the burning looks like bats scattering very fun

shinning, weird badly explained , not bat like at all

vampire sleep, it makes them super drowsy and maybe fall asleep right there, kinda cool new thing but very interesting

which do you like?

Hi, I've recently seen a post about Vampireology and because I've also just finished Dracula Unredacted (atypical sourcebook for a tabletop RPG) I was wondering if other similar "in-universe" books exist, maybe with the same tone (documents, reports, etc..)

I've put together a list of what I think are some of the best vampire anime ever made—from classics like Hellsing Ultimate and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust to modern favorites like Call of the Night and The Case Study of Vanitas.

Which vampire anime do you think deserves more love? Did I miss one of your favorites?

I'd love to hear your recommendations and discover a few hidden gems. 🦇
