I prefer the blood sucking, brain washing, sinister vampires. But sexy. Want sexy vampires. - but not boyfriend material. Bad boy to the 100th degree.<br /><br />Eric is a great example, to me, of the perfect vampire. Sexy, but dark enough to be scary. I just want to thunk Bill on the nose, and tell him to quit whining and go bite some-freakin-body.A.J.

Scary vampires!
I Am Legend ...I'm with Sinead. Scary vampires!<br /><br />I Am Legend is based on a 1950's novel that is very, very scary. Scarier than the film. Though I do love Will Smith.<br /><br />If you want the original scary, you want Dracula. In the book he's basically an animal with a thin veneer of civilized human. He even smells like a rotting corpse. Dracula is the reason I can't really get turned on by vampires, lol!Simonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-19123232543191997592010-03-05T14:36:03.542-05:002010-03-05T14:36:03.542-05:00I forgot about I Am Legend, loved that as well.

Vampires are my favourite form of horror, when done right. <br /><br />Chatty Girl, you have great taste, we love JR Ward, for me that Zadist books is still one of my favourite romancesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-33944608714471179792010-03-05T12:25:44.682-05:002010-03-05T12:25:44.682-05:00Interesting, Maureen.

I think in a lot of ways, the horror readers want the scary and the romance readers want the seductive.<br /><br />Although, check out Alyssa Day's Atlantis series. The vampires are crazy bad, but with their own agenda.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09803986849921870941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-29866007149738131962010-03-05T10:38:47.561-05:002010-03-05T10:38:47.561-05:00I'd love a good vampires as purely scary book,...I'd love a good vampires as purely scary book, too.<br /><br />But I wonder if they'd have the elements in them that romance readers want...

I'd almost forgotten when vampires were scary! :-) I remember sleeping with the light on for about six months after reading Stephen King's Salem's Lot. <br /><br />Wait! I have a more recent one, too. The vampires in I Am Legend were almost not sentient. They were just killing machines.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09803986849921870941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-2677693946589562502010-03-05T09:16:57.716-05:002010-03-05T09:16:57.716-05:00That's Sinead - the purist
