Dracula Night

"Dracula Night" is a short story and extension of The Southern Vampire Mysteries. Published in Many Bloody Returns. This story does not affect the storylines in the Southern Vampires novels. Plot summary Eric's vampire bar, Fangtasia, throws a party each year for the vampire observance of Dracula Night, in honor of the infamous Count Dracula. According to legend, the Count will choose one lucky party from all over the world to grace with his presence. The book characters are amused by Eric's childlike hope that the Count will appear at his party, just like Linus of the Peanuts comic hopes in vain to greet the Great Pumpkin.
