An Interview Without a Vampire

TDG: Delightful. Don’t mind if I do. We’re done here.
Dear Victoria Nations,
You put the creep in creeptastic and I am so glad you’ve allowed us slither our way into your life. You’ve been a champion of TMS since before I can remember and that thaws my heart. So, here, from my brains to your plate, is The Thing That Reminds Me of You.
Love,
The Davis Girl

I have arranged for a fuzzy friend to visit you later.
Have the creepiest day ever. Everyone is screaming about your special day.
Best horror wishes,
Kathy

Have a great birthday!
