Decorations For a Vampire Party

Black, white, and blood red are the colors that come to mind when I think of vampires and they're perfect for decorating a vampire party. Start by placing black candelabra with blood-dripping candles around the event location. Hang bats from the ceiling and stretch spider webs across the walls. Serve the food on red platters, the soup in test tubes, and the cocktail in clear martini glasses. Read more

Vampire Cocktail Recipe

At my vampire party, I'll be offering guests dressed like Buffy and the Cullens an assortment of vampire-themed drink options. Red wine is a no brainer: it's the color of blood. To tint beer red, I'll use the same technique I employed on St. Patrick Day's only with red food coloring instead of green. I'll also offer this dessert cocktail. It's a mixture of raspberry vodka, white chocolate Read more

Brownie Coffin Recipe

Since vampires are so hot right now, I'm jumping on the bandwagon and throwing a fangtastic Halloween party. The savory menu consists of fun finger foods, so to ensure that no extra plates and utensils are necessary, I'm serving a portable, pop-in-your mouth dessert. No vampire travels without a coffin — unless he has a special ring like the Salvatore Brothers — that's why these almond Read more

The Vampire Diaries "Before Sunset": The Good, The Bad, and The Bloody

The Vampire Diaries Recap "Before Sunset"

I didn't really expect things to get that crazy on The Vampire Diaries until next week's season finale, but wow, this week is full of intensity. There are a few big fights, a little bit of vampire torture, and though Alaric is the villain of the episode, the group is victorious in taking down another of their foes amid the chaos. Bonnie gets to use her witchy skills, but she's not the only lady Read more

The Vampire Diaries Recap "The Dinner Party"

It's flashbacks and fancy parties on this week's episode of The Vampire Diaries. We travel back into Stefan's personal history and learn what he was like (read: very, very bad) before he became the "good" vampire he is today. In Mystic Falls, there's still no sign of Klaus, but the other Original baddie Elijah is invited to a very special dinner hosted by Damon, while Bonnie and Jeremy show up Read more

The Vampire Diaries Recap "Break on Through"

Like last week, this week's episode of The Vampire Diaries is pretty underwhelming again, and again, I blame the lack of Klaus. Where is he hiding? The episode instead focuses on Alaric and his uncontrollable urge to kill innocent people, and Damon's old pal Sage, who's on the hunt for her old flame, original vampire Finn. There's not so much excitement this week, except for one extended, and Read more
