Your inner vamp-ness

Say the name "Anne Rice" and many people will smile back at you, responding with "... ahh, vampires!"

What is it about the very concept of vampires that makes us (oh lowly mortals that we be) go weak at the knees? Okay so maybe "us" is mostly women - but there must be a few men out there who embrace the fantasy of never-ending undead-ness and hanging out with all those beautiful vampire-ettes. Can we say "Twilight", anyone?

Vampires have hovered around me for years. Yes, i had to seek them out - in books, in movies, in my unrepeatable dreams *blush*. Each new vampire nudged my imagination - touched my mind with sensation. Each gave me an emotional caress, a nibble of fantasy; fed into warm and sensual longings that made for a lovely repast of desire. i could put myself in the story with them - imagine being held, captivated by their ultimate power. i drift with longing now as i recall them - Lestat, Edward, even Dracula.

Vampires - for me - are sexy. Omniscient. Frightening in their power. The ultimate bad boy. And i'm very sure that should i ever meet one in real, that i will not be able to resist tilting my head ever so slowly to expose the pale, fragile length of my neck and then .....

But i digress.

So, given the fascination with vampires that some people share, perhaps it is easy to see why they like to explore their inner vampire in this lovely virtual world that we play in. You can embrace your hidden demons - or your mischievous self - shed your inhibitions and run around in amazing outfits that only a real life barbie could ever wear. You can be the ultimate demon or the sultry vampette, luring all those daring enough to come near you into the comfort of your wiles. And in all of this, you can find a home to welcome you. Not a bad deal.

Are you ready to explore?
