"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 gonna say Cheech and Danny Trejo, but you win.
1922βs Nosferatu?
Or 2024 Nosferatu, which is like 1922 Nosferatu but with full penetration.
Speaking of old mediaβ¦ I was hesitant to recommend Carmilla, since I wasnβt sure youβd be looking for books (the most remarkable merit being that it was written before Dracula and even the invention of cinema), but TIL there is indeed a movie:

oh wow thanks that's very interesting, I never heard of that before. For those of us in the US, looks like it's free on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/100005362/the-vampire-lovers
This is the only one that actually looks like a vampire:
Most others look like sexual fantasies with a hint of vampirism
Count duckula
Johnny Depp played Barnabas Collins in Dark Shadows.
Viktor in Underworld played by Bill Nighy
Adam Sandler's Dracula and his daughter, Mavis, in Hotel Transylvania
I don't remember the character's name, but one of the Dark Brotherhood in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion was a vampire. There was also a big vampire quest line in a Skyrim expansion
Dracula in Castlevania
Dracula in the song monster mash (as a character he also shows up in some of the other songs from that band)
Niklaus Mikaelson
Consistency in naming the actress vs the character
Yeah lel there are also a couple spelling mistakes/typos. I ain't hating tho, doing memes takes effort.
Indeed it does. Should it include anyone from What we do in the shadows?
By popular demand, it seems so! I def. got to watch that show.
If you're going to include a puppet then you might as well bring in Alucard.
I had to look it up, I'm not familiar with anime vampires. Isn't there a Vampire Hunter D as well?
i was partly curious if people would assume I was talking about Alucard from Hellsing or Alucard from Castlevania X3
George Hamilton in Love at First Bite
Salma Hayek in From Dusk Til Dawn.
Gravelly drawl: βSOOKIEβ
Needs more vampire Bill. I would also mention:

Where Antonio Banderas in Interview with a Vampire?
Nicholas Cage as Dracula in Renfield
Not enough women, so Nadja from What we do in the Shadows.
Where is Blacula?
Dracula from Chica Vampiro. The show is bad but I think it would be a completely unique personnality in this panel.
A Colombian telenovela about vampires?!? LOLZ I gotta track it down!!!
The show is quite bad. Especially since I was watching a french version with poor dubbing and Γ©pisode that were clearly rearrange from how the relationship of the secondary character would go back and forth in time. Yet, I'm so upset I couldn't see it until the end!
The old universal films and hammer should be represented: Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee
Hey, that could even be a meme of its own: "Who's the best Dracula?"
Jan Valek and Kristina from John Carpenter's Vampires.
James Woods notwithstanding, it's still one of my guilty pleasure movies.
Evil Ed - Fright Night
Barnabas Collins
Doctor Acula
ooh hadn't heard of that one. Could be from Scrubs, from Ed Wood, from one of a couple bands, or other...?
Scrubs!
Lothos from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie and the unfortunate Darren Shan portrayal in the Cirque du Freak movie
