Object of the game: List one vampire fact or trivia per post.

Sources: Can either be book, film, comic book or television show. You must cite your source.

Difficulty: You have to do it by memory. This is an honor based system but it would be more fun if it's not something you look up. If you loosely remember it and you want to verify your source that's fine also but it's more satisfying if you remember it (at least personally).
