The Beautiful Dead

In the 20th episode we continue SPOOK-TOBER with our real vampires from places like Russia, Ireland, Africa and more! Lena helps you to build a vampire-fighting kit in case a vampire comes calling from Albania or Iceland and has some apologies for you and Alexander Skarsgard (please love her). What vampire legend did YOU grow up hearing?????

In honor of Spook-tober, Lena continues with the real vampire knowledge you all want to know. She discusses blood-sucking creatures from the first time they were uttered to the creation of this podcast. Let Lena know if already knew all this stuff or if she managed to teach you something new!!!!! Happy Halloween Month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lena kicks off spooky season with a Vampire History Lesson ... all about Vlad Tepes and Countess Elizabeth Bathory. Was is it all real or just peasant gossip? Were there political motives? All we know is these two changed vampire lore forever! 

Lena covers a book for the first time on the podcast and guess what? --- its her book! Lots of spoiler alerts for this one as she talks about what vampires inspired her, why she wrote the book and all the juicy bits behind the scenes. Special appearance by her dog.

It's the 16th episode and Lena picked a gory one! From the genius and twisted mind of Tarantino comes the kind of vamp (and vamp kills) that only he could dream up. Plus announcements about upcoming spooky season episodes!

Lena gives you a quickie when she reviews the S6E3 vampire themed episode of Psych entitled "This Episode Bites". Can you catch all the undead references??

In this episode Lena gets in the back to school mode with the 2014 movie Vampire Academy. She hasn't read the book so she has lots of questions. Feel free to answer them for her! Also, hear about Lena's weekend at the convention and what's coming in October!

Lena watched all five Twilight movies this week and shares her thoughts without reservation. This episode may hold her most controversial comment BY FAR-- she can only hope to not lose listeners! Plus, hear about the new "little bites". 

Lena had so much to say about this one!!!! Plus, she had to admit to making a mistake on the previous episode. Also... listen to hear why she is so happy tonight.
