Children Of The Night




This time of year (depending upon your hemisphere) has always had humans thinking of the harvest, and the darkness that comes, after. And, the things that inhabit that darkness.

Fictional, though they may be... you were either going to get pounded, strangled, or have your lungs ripped out... except for Dracula. Blood & Soul was his tribute.

Personally, it's the monsters in the human suits that vex me.
