Spooky season is upon us, which means it is time for spooky reads! Admittedly, I’m not a big fan of scary things. But there are a few exceptions I can make, and that always includes vampires.
Let’s face it: vampires are hot!!! And the need to eat blood to survive while keeping it a secret from everyone is fun. Whether they are the good guys or the ones who need to be hunted, vampires are one of the pinnacles of spooky season. I’ve put together a list of six vampire webcomics for you to sink your teeth in this month.
