The modern era of the sexy, romantic vampire probably began with Barnabas Collins of Dark Shadows and of course the Anne Rice books.

Why fact check when you can throw in the word "probably"?  lol

Sadly, that's just par for the course these days. But still, it's always great to see credit being given to DS.  [ghost_smiley]
