Chiller's 24-hour 'Buffy' marathon: Change your Sunday plans!

by Catherine Fuentes

In case you like waking up really early on Sunday mornings and were looking for something to do that involves vampires instead of football, this news is for you: Chiller announced via press release that they will be running a 24-hour marathon of the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer this Sunday, starting at the bright hour of 6 a.m. EST. Remember, vampires never sleep, so 6 a.m. is fine for them, but for us mortals, be sure to set your DVR to catch this marathon of amazingness. (Public Service Announcement: On Sunday the clocks fall back, so change your clock and enjoy the extra hour that may make an early morning Buffy marathon a bit more enjoyable.)

The marathon kicks off Buffy‘s daily run on Chiller — which begins Monday — and yes, the series will run in order, which is great for newbies and Buffy enthusiasts alike. I, for one, have been catching episodes of Buffy on LOGO, but I’d also really enjoy starting from the very beginning, if only to remind myself why the series was the most memorable show of my teenage years.

Great vampire books ... that aren't related to 'Twilight' or 'True Blood'

By Lorena Nava Ruggero

With the third season of True Blood, the new Eclipse movie and a slew of vampire books in stores, it's quite the vamp-filled summer.

While I've enjoyed many tales of the undead, including Interview with a Vampire and Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire Mysteries, there are few I'd read again. From contemporary to classic, here's a roundup of my favorite far-out fanged fiction:

Dracula: The Un-Dead Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt. Dutton, $26.95 (416p) ISBN 978-0-525-95129-2

In this sequel to Bram Stoker's Dracula, his great-grandnephew offers one of the rowdiest revisionist treatments of the most influential vampire novel ever written. In 1912, as Stoker labors to adapt Dracula for the stage, its “characters” are dying gruesomely all over London. It turns out they are as real as Stoker himself, who learned their secret story on the sly and took creative liberties when turning it into his popular penny dreadful. Dracula's true story involves the passing of his blood line through Mina Harker to her son; a malignant Dr. Van Helsing, who Scotland Yard suspects had a hand in the murders attributed to Jack the Ripper; and the exploits of a 16th-century vampire countess, Dracula's former lover, who cuts a bloody swath through London seeking the survivors of Dracula's last stand in Transylvania. Energetically paced and packed with outrageously entertaining action, this supernatural thriller is a well-needed shot of fresh blood for the Dracula mythos. (Oct.)

welcome to "It's in the Blood"... a vamp community for ALL of the vamp shows out there....i've got:

*Dark Shadows
*Forever Knight
*Kindred: the Embraced
*Buffy the Vampire Slayer
*Angel
*Blood Ties
*Moonlight

and... movies and books are welcome here too: Lost Boys, Anita Blake, the "Southern Vamp" series, and much much more! :D

we're not here to compare or contrast, or say "my show is better than yours" - we're here to squee about it! (it's kinda like my [livejournal.com profile] obsessions_r_us comm, but for vamps).

what's allowed here? fanfic (canon, AU, crossovers, slash), fanart, picspams, upcoming appearances of vampire actors - as long as there's a vampire involved. Fanfic and fanart needs a warning; appearances and news items should be credited. suggestions are always allowed as well!

what's not allowed - bashing, flaming (fire usually kills vamps), and thinking you really are a vamp. ;)

i thought i'd start it off with two recommendations for AU fanfics!

*Bid My Blood to Run, by [livejournal.com profile] xtremeroswellia: one-shot, Smallville/Supernatural Crossover AU, rated NC17 - Dean/Chloe
*Blood Bonds: the Mayaverse Series, by me (at [livejournal.com profile] trys_writer): at this time, there's 13 fics in the series, but each fic "ends." parts range from PG13 to NC17 - Dean/Maya, Sam/OFC

enjoy the comm, and spread the squee with fangs! :D
