11 Things: Vampires cooler than Edward Cullen

1. Dracula
Predictable? Maybe. But Dracula can turn into a wolf, thereby ending the vampires vs. werewolves debate for good. (Dracula wins.)

2. Carmilla Not only is J. Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla cooler than Edward - she's cooler than Dracula. First, because she predates the count by 25 years, and she's a lesbian.

3. Kurt Barlow (from "Salem's Lot")
Say what you will about Stephen King, but there's no use denying the man creates a pretty terrifying (sparkle-free) vampire.

4. Lestat (from "Interview With the Vampire") Remember when Tom Cruise was scary because he was a vampire, and not because he was Tom Cruise?

5. David (from "The Lost Boys")
Before Kiefer Sutherland was saving various presidents on "24," he was terrorizing Santa Cruz (oops, make that "Santa Carla") as the coolest '80s vampire. Sorry, Bowie.
