I started a fun thread over at Absolute Write called Creature Comforts. We're taking a week-long look at the various monsters used throughout horror and urban fanasties while everyone weighs in with the pros and cons, the ups and downs, the yin and yangs, or the shit and shinolas of said creatures. We started out with (argueably) the lit fave: the Vampire.
If you're an AW regular or just enjoy buzzing forum sites, stop over and a eyeful of what others feel about the creature.
