Your Dark Passenger

Yes, you heard me correctly. Bella Swan is schizophrenic. Before everyone rushes to defend their favorite fictional klutz from the Twilight Saga, hear me out. There’ll be plenty of opportunities to come after me with torches and pitchforks after I’ve made my case.

Why am I even thinking about this, you may wonder. Well, I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been bombarded with movie trailers on television and internet ads about movie. I get it. New Moon opens Friday. I’ll be at the midnight premiere playing chaperone to two screaming teenage vampire fangirls.

But the Twilight fans alone can’t make Bella’s character any saner. I should have noticed it when I read the first book, but the full depth of her mental illness didn’t dawn on me (no pun intended) until after I read Breaking Dawn. (more…)

Happy Saturday, dark passengers.  As you know, I haven’t really been posting vampire content here anymore because I’m trying to move it over to The Vampire Lair.  However recently, I’ve been getting some very sincere comments and e-mails on the subject so I thought I should make an exception so that they can get some answers.

Below, I’ve copied two of the comments I recently received.

Hey, dark passengers.  I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.  Of course, I might be about to put all my fang bangers in a bad mood.

But there are always two sides of every coin.  Real vampirism is no different.

Recently, I’ve come into contact with a number of individuals who’ve been the prey (more…)

Happy Fang Bangin’ Friday, dark passengers!

Yep, I thought today was a good time to bring back that old favorite.  Why now, you ask?  Well peeps…I didn’t have much of a choice.  Let me explain.

Despite my best efforts to get the truth about real vampires out to all the fanpires in cyberspace, I’m still receiving countless questions on what can be done to become a vampire in real life.  Before I talk about Ungroundable Vampire Butters, I think now is a good time recap exactly what I’ve covered about real vampires to this point…just in case anyone has only just discovered our vampy goodness here.

Happy Monday, dark passengers .  If you’re anything like me then Mondays aren’t typically happy days.  Back to school, back to work, the end of a weekend full of fun…I’m with you on that.  There’s a reason they have song about how Monday sucks.

However, I might just have a little bit of insider info to brighten up this otherwise crummy day…

A documentary is currently in the the early stages on - what else? - the truth about real vampires!  I’m not talking about some rinky dink little public broadcasting station either.  This is the real deal and it’s being handled by a network you ALL will know and probably watch on a regular basis.

Why aren’t I telling you who it is?  Well, (more…)
