Ashley & Joel have loved Lestat & Anne Rice's vampires for decades, but that's just ONE of the many vampire worlds they've found solace in over the years. In this episode, Joel and Ashley explore a variety of themes surrounding vampires in literature and media, touching on personal experiences with college, activism, and the impact of various vampire stories.

They discuss the differences between Stephen King's and Anne Rice's portrayals of vampires, nostalgia for young adult horror, and the cultural significance of series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and True Blood. The conversation also delves into the unique elements of the Necroscope series and the influence of Blade, while acknowledging the importance of community and activism in today's society.
