My Sweet Vampire Candice: Vampires in the Sunshine State (The Sacred Mask)

Digital Copy available on amazon

Before we proceed, let us set some ground rules. As the name states, this book is going to be about a little, sweet, and innocent vampire lady. Most folks are familiar with the idea of a vampire. The thing that comes to mind is Count Dracula. He is what folks think about, when you say the word vampire. If we worked under the Bram Stocker’s idea of a vampire, this book might be quite predictable and somewhat cliché. Let us examine the idea of a vampire.
A vampire is thought of being a creature that drinks blood, sleeps in a coffin, can shapeshift, has a garlic and catholic phobia, and may or may not be killed by sunlight. If we just focus on the bloodsucking thing, there is a great deal of animals and humans that have vampiric habits. Some even shun the sunlight, and religious Catholic items. There are regional variants based on countries. Still, the overall consensus is that vampires drink blood. Some need it, while others like drinking the color red in items.

Our sweet vampire therefore must be a bloodsucker to qualify as a vampire. So, we got that much down. Within the bloodsucker community, there are going to be two types of vampires. There will be the living vampires, and the undead vampires. The living ones can form families, age, and even die of illnesses. Depending on the plasticity of their souls, they might become undead creatures of the night. Both undead and living vampires can pass on their vampirism to normal humans. Normal humans becoming vampires is a big part of the vampire mythos.
