I wrote this for a friend who said she wanted to do something different for Halloween a few years back. I had hoped she would use it as the basis for a photostory. That didn't pan out. I'm not sure it would work as a photostory anyway.
Anyway, I've always loved vampire stories. I thought it might be fun to do one first-person, like Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire. Unlike that book, which is being narrated to someone who wasn't there at the time, this story is told in present tense, to someone who is with the vampire. It made the description fun because I had to say a lot in a few words. I tried to do it like the old radio dramas, where they had to have a character describe what she was looking at without actually seeming to take time to describe it.
