The trend that will never die

Romeo & Juliet & Vampires by William Shakespeare, Claudia Gabel

What's next, I wonder...?

Mapp & Lucia & Vampires--when a Certain Count settles in the quaint seaside town of Tilling, Elizabeth Mapp and Emmeline Lucas at first vie to claim him as the prize of the social season. But when the morning shopping promenade becomes an exercise in "Who's Gone Missing" and Georgie Pillson develops an appetite for flies, sworn rivals become reluctant allies. Garlic a la Riseholme, anyone?

The Barchester Chronicles & Zombies--Odious Mr. Slope? Try Downright Putrid.

And last but far from least:

Dracula & Vampires--it had to happen eventually.

Oh, I LOVE the thought of Mapp & Lucia & vampires! (Well, not really, because who could handle that combination?

Also Barchester and Mr. Slope as a zombie. He would make such a GOOD zombie.

But I think you're missing one...the new Sherlock Holmes, himself a vampire. (Tall, thin, pale, goes out at night a lot...)

The New Sherlock is rather vampirical.

I think a vamp invasion of Tilling would be insane. But it could work.

I love 'Mapp and Lucia and vampires!' Brilliant!

I think it shows promise. *g*

And now I really need to focus on the wip and forget about Ben Cumberbatch--yes, he would work well as the Count--playing bridge. And submitting a watercolor of the old Transylvanian homestead to the art show.
