Blade, the half-vampire, half human Marvel superhero, is coming to Spike TV as a series. From Coming Soon:

Spike TV has given the green-light for a television series based on Marvel Super Hero Blade as the network’s first original scripted series. The network has ordered 11 one-hour episodes, in addition to the previously announced two-hour kick-off episode, to be produced by New Line Television, set to commence production in Vancouver this spring. Blade premieres in June 2006.

Remember that self-described vampire running for governor of Minnesota? He was arrested in Indiana. From UPI:

Self-described vampire and Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Jonathan “The Impaler” Sharkey has been arrested on Indiana charges of stalking and escape.

Sharkey is wanted in Indianapolis on the charges on which bond has been set at $100,000, the Princeton (Minn.) Union-Eagle reported.

Princeton police said their search discovered the May 2005 warrants that led to Sharkey’s arrest Monday.

Go read this post by Stacie at final girl. I did not one, but two spit takes. Also she links to the new Silent Hill trailer. I saw the trailer at the theater and this movie is going to rock.

I don’t usually feel like this, but some days I wish I had unlimited wealth. Then I would just drop everything and spend a week at Haunt X.

Haunt X is an event for people who prefer the “dark” things of life! This one-of-a-kind horror, haunt & Halloween expo features horror film celebrities, exciting tours, a real paranormal investigation, séances, Halloween & haunt seminars, world class speakers, horror movies, a to-die-for costume ball, special events and a giant dealer’s room filled     with the latest and greatest spooky merchandise and collectibles. 

Now that is my kind of expo.

Jesus’ General and Ginmar cover behavior that is worse than anything a horror writer could imagine.

In case you were wondering, two of the site’s contributors have not been posting. I wish to go meta for a moment to explain why.

Cookie Jill is bravely facing the forces of darkness from California. I suspect the troubles are werewolf related.

Pastor Dan is battling evil, this time in Pennsylvania. Plus he’s carried me on his blog Faith Forward for years.

Should they need assistance in their fights, they need simply to put up the vampire bat signal and help is on the way.

I’d love this blog even if the owner hadn’t just made me a lot of play money in Blog Shares.

Makes me want to write science fiction in the Victorian era. Via Boing Boing.

The Register in England has fun with Google Earth. The “flying car” and the “spot the black helicopter” series.
