news flash: vampires are not real.

Imagine this: It’s midnight. Your sitting out on your porch alone, just minding your own business when some crazy ass lady comes swooping in out of nowhere and starts gnawing on your face like it’s beef jerky. She says that she’s a vampire and she’s going to eat you.

This is not a scene from “The Vampire Diaries”. Wes Craven is not hiding behind a camera somewhere in the distance. And Alexander Skarsgard is not going to show up shirtless with a bunch of other vampire hotties. 

No.

This actually happened. IN. REAL. LIFE.

According to CBS, a Florida woman attacked an elderly man late one evening outside of a deserted Hooter's. The man, who was wheelchair-bound, was bitten on his neck and face, later receiving stitches. The woman, who was later found after the altercation, had no recollection of the attack. Her claim? She is a vampire.

I blame you, Stephenie Meyer and your band of Twi-Hards.

NEWS FLASH: vampires are not real.

That should be the end of this discussion; not real. Done and done.

But ever since this obsession took over every Barnes & Noble Young Adult section and made every TV show about hot blood-sucking men, people actually believe vampires are real.

The fangs. The drinking of the blood. The vampire/werewolf hybrid...thing.

Don't think it's that bad? Try this.


This is Stephanie Pistey. Since Stephanie was 12 years-old, she knew she was a vampire. Correction, a "vampire with a bit of a werewolf mixed in". Stephanie, who is now 18, currently resides in a Florida-based prision for murdering a 16 year-old boy. Although Stephanie denies drinking the boy's blood after the murder to police, she did post a message on her Facebook page stating that she, "wanted the blood".

Really? This hasn't gotten a bit out of hand?!

Don't you think it's a problem when the reason you fear dark alleys now is because pepper spray is no longer a repellent but a marinade for your neck?

People! Get a grip. Drink a Bloody Mary with your plasticy, fake fangs on Halloween and then come back to reality on November 1st.
