Gifts for Fans of Vampires from Happy Corner


Full of secrets and mystery, the vampire has intrigued many and currently appears in an array of novels, movies, and television shows. From ‘True Blood’ on HBO to the ‘Twilight’ series, fangs and staying out of the sunlight have become an increasingly popular trend in entertainment. Somewhere in your family and friends, there’s a diehard Sookie Stackhouse fan or teenager who’s gaga over Bella and Edward Cullen.

When browsing gifts for fans of vampires, consider the following suggestions:

Can 'Wolfman' destroy vampire fever?

(CNN) -- Until Taylor Lautner beefed up and began walking around shirtless in "New Moon," there wasn't a chance in the underworld that werewolves could steal pop culture's rabid affection for vampires.

But now that moviegoers' appetites have been whetted for this particularly hairy breed of supernatural beast, perhaps the new horror movie "The Wolfman," starring Benicio Del Toro and Anthony Hopkins, can help the myth finally step out from the, er, non-shadow of vampires after all.

In the past 30 years, there have been a number of films dedicated to the frightening -- and sometimes hilarious -- things that can happen when under the werewolf curse, yet the genre has never soared into popularity.

We're officially past "New Moon" frenzy, and werewolves haven't exactly shown up in TV series, novels and other movies the same way vampirism has since "Twilight" and its cohorts left their mark

'True Blood' Scoop! New Cast Member Kevin Alejandro Describes His First Scene In Season 3


Yesterday we brought you Kevin Alejandro's thoughts on his cop series, "Southland," which is currently airing on TNT after getting a premature axe from NBC before its second season even aired. Today, we have something even juicier — 411 on Kevin's new gig as a hospital worker named Jesus on HBO's "True Blood." Unfortunately, he couldn't spill many actual details about what, exactly, his role entails (they're pretty tight-lipped over at "True Blood" headquarters), but he tried his hardest to give us the scoop on his character, who just so happens to be Lafayette's (Nelsan Ellis) new love interest.

Kevin said that Jesus is going to be hanging around Bon Temps for the entire season, which began shooting a couple of weeks ago. "There's not a whole lot I can tell you about it because they're very, very secretive with what is released and what's out there," he said.
