"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.

It's more than just learning how to dress sharp, you also have to be able to afford it. Older vampires have had time to amass some real wealth and a serious wardrobe.

Nope, it's all learning what looks good on you and what's comfortable enough that you feel and act naturally. Clothes in the first world are so cheap as to be laughable. I've had to ask my wife to stop bringing home kick ass clothes for me. "It was only $1!"

Only items I'll spend $10 on are maybe shoes and maybe pants. OK, I have two tuxedos, $110 on Amazon. One for my wedding and another for I forget what, but I'll have those forever.

Posted this before, in response to people saying fashion costs money or is uncomfortable. Top, $2. Vest, $2. Pants, $4. Watch, $2. Necklace, homemade from scraps. You get the idea. (And BTW, the top and vest were from the women's section of the thrift.)
