I have loved vampires from a very young age my first ever books Gruesome and Bloodsocks by Jane Holiday and Vlad the Drac series by Anne Jugman had me hooked. These weren’t your blood sucking monsters, I was only six, but one drank cola and the other ate soap. Still they never left me; the passion for these creatures was there. I moved onto Bram Stoker’s Dracula and LJ Smith’s Nightworld books as an early teen. Not forgetting the creative mind of Christopher Pike. Last Vampire Series, is a book that will always stick out in my mind from my teenage years.
I feel in love with the unusual, the different and the supernatural. Who wants ordinary and plain, when you can live in an exciting, dark, fantasyland? Not to mention if you go with the vampires depicted in shows such as True Blood and Vampire Diaries, the male vampires are always gorgeous.

The world is full of amazing and unbelievable things, who says that Vampires and werewolves, for that matter, dont exist!I for one will not give up the search for proof! xxKerrianne xx

30th October 2010 at 12:40 pmWhen I was little my 'dream guy' was a tall dark and handsome vampire with links to the Italian mafia . . . oh, and he had to own a vineyard!My hubby is tall, dark and handsome and he loves a glass of red with dinner so I didn't do too badly then :-!I have loved vampires since forever, and fell in love with Lestat even though he was a blonde. Tom Cruise did spoil him for me slightly so now I always read the books and fall in love, but find that the actors never quite manage to live up to my expectations.Damon is smokin' hot though so he's a winner all round!
