"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.

This highlights the problem with too much constructive criticism... You get people with no sense of humour chiming in

I love when things are named by the public. I think this should be done more often (but limited to local participants) to show the culture of the area in the names of things.

Calgary, AB, Canada held a content for Snowplow names. I would love if all the city busses had fancy names :p https://engage.calgary.ca/namethesnowplow

This reminds me of Scotland's gritters which all have punny names.

You can watch them on the gritter tracker: https://www.traffic.gov.scot/gritter-tracker

Do they have “Up The Gritter”?
