Welcome, my October Fiends!

From bloated graveyard corpses to velvet-clad aristocrats, vampires have always mirrored our darkest fears and deepest desires.

In this first episode of Dark Thirst, join me as I trace their evolution through The Vampyre, Carmilla, and Dracula; stories that turned horror into seduction and gave birth to the vampire we can't resist today.

Join me... if you dare...
