Hallow's Notes - The Vampire said What?

Do we really know our Vamps?  Who was the most fiendish, or the most noble?  I put together some interesting quotey tid-bits from some famous and not so famous Vamps!



"You're beautiful to me because you're human. Your frailty. Your short years. Your heart. All that suddenly seems more precious than anything I've ever known."  The Vampire Lestat
*
What? Did your life pass before your eyes? 
Cup of tea, cup of tea .. almost got shagged .. cup of tea.   Spike
 *
"My heart hasn’t beat in almost ninety years, but this was different. It was like my heart was gone—like I was hollow. Like I’d left everything that was inside me here with you."  -Edward
  *
Is this your wife? What a lovely throat.  Nasferatu

 *
I'm sensing a trip to IKEA. And you know my feelings on that.  Mitchell - Being Human

*

"Listen to them - children of the night. What music they make."  -Dracula

 *

 "You know, I never properly thanked you for sending me to Hell."  -Angelus
 *
 “Dearest, your little heart is wounded; think me not cruel because I obey the irresistible law of my strength and weakness; if your dear heart is wounded, my wild heart bleeds with yours. In the rapture of my enormous humiliation I live in your warm life, and you shall die—die, sweetly die—into mine." - Carmilla

 *

Spike:  "Are we feeling better then?"
Drusilla:  "I'm naming all the stars."
Spike:  "Can't see the stars, love. That's the ceiling.  Also, it's day."
Drusilla:  "I can see them. But I've named them all the same name, and there's terrible confusion."
 
 *
I admire you, come down for a taste.  -Kurt Barlow, Salem's Lot 

*
“Nonsense, my friend, sheer nonsense. I can look on anything I like. And I rather like looking on crucifixes in particular.”  The Vampire Louis 

 *
Angel: "You deserve more. Something outside of demons and darkness. You should be with somebody who can take you into the light. Someone who can make love to you. Before you know it, you'll want it all, a normal life."
Buffy:  "I'll never have a normal life."
Angel:  "That's right. You'll always be the Slayer. But that's all the more reason why you should have a real relationship instead of this. This freak show."
Buffy:  "I can't believe you're breaking up with me."

*
“I can’t help being a gorgeous fiend. It’s just the card I drew.”  The Vampire Lestat

Hallow's Notes - Zombie Make-up Tips for the Epidermally Challenged

I spent the entire week looking at Zombie make-up tutorials, trying to figure out the easiest way to create a wound.  Some ideas were simple, some really detailed, until I finally found this young, handsome gent on You Tube.  My first attempt didn't go well - I had too much of an outline, but my second attempt went great when I added enough latex to the edges to give it a blended effect to my neckline.  Alas, I took no photos as we were already late for the party, but here is my Zombie blueprint; I only did an area on my neckline.
