On Those Seasons of Renewal

Used with the permission of the author.

There are certain times of the year that tend to bring about very warm feelings of affection as well as eliciting feelings of a true inner love between so many people. Some do so adore the winter time, some certainly relish in the color and the crisp season of autumn. Some wait with yearly anticipation for the entrance of the Christmas season so that they can tide all of their yule's to last them through until the next one while others still, wish and wait in anticipation for the yearly entrance of spring. Yes, holidays and seasons signal so much for so many, and why not? There are so many reasons to adore the path of life and to want to experience as much as one can. Especially when the particular season that one loves so much matches the texture of the personality. This is why the autumn season matches this author's personality so much.
 

In the Blood: A Serious Look at Vampire-Myth Origins

The Blood is the LifeFor the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you for making atonement for your lives on the altar; for, as life, it is the blood that makes atonement.

Avalon Still Exists Within the Heartfelt Spirit

Glastonbury Abby - AvalonAvalon, there is a word that always enamors the most wonderful of visions no matter what culture one hails from in this world. The legend of the Isle where Arthur found his rest, the Isle where Joseph of Arimathaea was supposed to have visited and perhaps deposited the Holy Grail, the cup that Christ used in the last supper. The Isle where the Lady of the Lake still is supposed to send aloft calls to those who dream of forlorn visions of chivalry and knighthood. Avalon, that place where all of the worlds creative energies intersect skewing ley-lines abound pure and reenergized.

 

Spirituality for the Vampire

EnergyYes you read that correctly! " The vampire" you ask?

What in the name of Bela Lugosi does spirituality have anything to do with the vampire?

Welcome to the purposeful wanderings of a mind that wanders its way through the spiritual fabric of what is, and then compares it to what "really" is the spiritual in a context of abstract being set into the rubric of one of the most vastly compromised images to ever hit the pages of a book, the screens of a theater, or the high-definition landscape walls of the latest home theater.

 

Britain Wants More Vamps!

Vampire NewsBram Stoker’s set his masterpiece, Dracula in London but people in Britain think that since then, America has really taken over the world of vampires. And Britain wants it back!

Britain is fighting back against what they call the “Americanization” of vampires and so, they’ve set up a conference for Brits to come and enjoy all things vampire-related.
 

An Open Letter To The Vampire Community

ThoughtsI've been thinking about this quite a bit recently since I came back to the online vampire community over all. First we have a guy that is taking the name vampire and dragging it through the mud with every single thing that he says recently. Then we have a stagnated community as a whole. Neither of these events should be happening.

 

Highgate Vampire

Highgate CemeteryThe Highgate Vampire was a media sensation surrounding reports of supposed supernatural activity at Highgate Cemetery in London.

A modern vampire story

Many popular books on ghosts, like the book called "The Highgate Vampire", mention a vampire which purportedly haunted Highgate Cemetery in the early 1970s. The growth of its reputation, which can be traced through contemporary media reports and subsequent books by two participants, Seán Manchester and David Farrant, is an example of modern legend-building.
