Why Are Alpha Werewolves Suddenly Everywhere?
True Blood, Twilight, Buffy… so many of us can’t get enough of vampires and werewolves. But lately, our feeds have been flooded with full-on “Alpha” werewolf erotica — a darker, hungrier kind of fantasy.
In this episode, we dig into how paranormal romance has shifted from seductive Draculas to dominant werewolves. Why is it everywhere now? Who’s creating it? And is this just Beauty and the Beast on steroids or something more unsettling?
Join us as we indulge our love of all things supernatural, just in time for Halloween month.
Clips featured in this episode:
Gary Oldman in “Bram Stoker's Dracula” (1992 film)
Matt Bourne in “Interview With the Vampire, Anne Rice, & 150 Years of Gay Vampires”
Craig Thomson in the TED-Ed video “The dark history of werewolves”
Frans de Waal in his TED talk “The surprising science of alpha males”
“Claimed By The Mega Size Alpha King No She-Wolf Dared To Mate” by Wattpad Dark Romance Fantasy Stories
