Halloween Sucks - Says Lily Drake blog hop

Today is the first day of October, the month we use scary decorations and dress up in colorful costumes in search of candy and treats on Halloween night. It is also the first day of the "Halloween Sucks, Says Lily Drake" Blog Hop presented by Inkspell Publishing . There are over 50 blogs participating in this hop.  Lily Drake wants to know about people's favorite fictional vampires.   When I think of vampires, I have many favorites in all types of media. Some of my favorites are: Movies: Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) Two words: Gary Oldman. Old fashioned, a class act, sexy, that voice and those eyes. The vampires of Underworld 2003), in particular Shane Brolly. What the movie lacked in character development it made up for with cool visuals and lots of action.  Dracula 2000 (2000) Not crazy about the movie but it starred Gerard Butler. Enough said. Fright Night (1985) Roddy MacDowall stole his scenes and Chris Sarandon was delightfully chilly. TV/Ca
