Blood Lust

In the September issue of ELLE Magazine, Peter Sorel writes about the fascination with vampires and how they're "sexy heroes who have forsworn feeding on people and long for a good woman's love." Sorel talks about True Blood, an HBO series from Alan Ball about a young barmaid in Louisiana who can hear other people's thoughts. She ends up falling in love with a vampire, played by Stephen Moyer. Sorel also mentions Twilight, the bible for lonely nerds like myself. He talks about Bella and her new found love for a vampire as well, played by gorgeous Brit hunk Rob Pattinson. Our society, now more than ever, has been sucked into the world of the imagination of great writers such as Stephenie Meyer and Charlaine Harris. Vampires have gained new respect; they're no longer feared, but embraced and loved.
