All right, so in case you hadn't noticed (I did drop hints).... I'm kind of a fan of dark, mysterious, vaguely vampiric things. Not all the things I like are like that, nor do I like all gothically influenced things... but let's just say, like a growing number of people, I see beauty in the dark.
So here's to that. Beauty in the dark.

As best as I can tell, the source tracks to here. |

I've actually been reading Picture of Dorian Gray. You'd be surprised how often people seem to totally abandon the numerous descriptions of Dorian in the book. Dorian is not merely described as pretty. His hair colour is specified as blond, and his looks are described as innocent, to the point that people don't believe anything against him because of it. He should never look like a 'cool beauty' type. This picture is by kakao-bean. I also enjoyed this portrait of the infamous young man, but chose to leave it out because it doesn't quite show the darkness as well as the above did. |

I believe the credits for this image are contained within the image itself. However, this reiteration isn't. So that's the link I'm posting in relation to the image. |

Demon-ish thing.... link. |
My previous
eerie post contained a lot of similar content. However, in this case I am focusing on things inspired by times long past- which will explain the amount of vampirism you'll find here.

This picture is not fanwork of anything. It's just plain old gorgeous. Art is by Kailyze. |

Also, because I couldn't resist adding a picture of everyone's favourite coffee-addicted transvestite vampire- Mal. Monstrous Regiment is awesome. credit |

And to round out our discworld extravaganza... Susan Sto Helit! credit |
