So what is your passion, a werewolf or a vampire? I can tell you that my daughter is torn between the two.
Of course this has a lot to do with the Twilight saga.
And my son, well...
he's all about the howling wolf pack.
I myself have always swayed back and forth, from wolfman to vampire...
then to vampires back to werewolves again.
When I think back to those days when I had my small black & white T.
V.
on late at night in my bedroom (even on school nights...
shhh)...
in order to make it look like I was asleep and the bedroom was dark, I'd roll up a towel and tuck it under the inside of my bedroom door so my Mom and Dad couldn't see the flickering of my television set.
And for sound, I had one of those long one piece ear plugs that the T.
V.
came with.
But it wasn't too long, so I always ended up three feet in front of the set.
Good times.
And those black and white werewolf and vampire "movies" were great to watch in a dark bedroom by yourself at night.
My personal favorite was the 1957, Michael Landon lead of "I was a Teenage Werewolf".
Classic! Then of course who could forget The Lost Boys in 1987.
That was a fun movie for me too.
I always thought that the big poster in the cave of Jim Morrison was iconic.
I guess you could say that movies, T.
V.
shows, books...
they all help in shaping just what one is drawn to ultimately.
Whether it's a werewolf, vampire or both.
One thing is for sure, they will always be a part of our story telling lives.
