i always wondered why vampires are looked at in a sexual/lustful way. One of the closest examples to a vampire was Countess Elizabeth Bathroy, legend has she used to bath in the blood of women, drink it. i forget how many hundreds she killed but quite a lot. They bricked her away in the Cachtice Castle, given a few rooms to live in til she died. Now that's a vampire, crazy and bloodlust. can't remember the worse book i've read, i've seen a few that made me wonder. A lot of books helped me. Pushkin, a russian writer, i liked his simplicity of words, very common-folk in style.
LMAO, I love how you had to explain who he is. Dahling, if someone doesn't know who Pushkin is, they need to get themselves to a library, stat. Why, he's right up there with Tolstoy!
