It’s Halloween night. And the winner is: the Vampire. I don’t like ‘em. Parasites. Leeches.



(I can't tell you how much I dislike leeches.) Vampires aren't from another world, and they’re not from this world, and they’re not even minions of the Devil. They just are. Elegant-seeming, Dracula is a fanged fiend, who creeps down walls like a spider.



Ever-hungry, never-resting, Dracula and all that clan are as alluring in their way as fairies, but they’ll never ever care about you. All they want to do is suck your blood and corrupt your flesh. Vampires have an appetite so selfish it’s like perverted purity – the inside of a vampire is hollow and can’t ever be filled. And the lovelier and better you are, the greater their lust.



Worst, a vampire has no soul, and can take yours if it wants. You can’t recover from the bite of a vampire – your soul goes pffft! And then you’re one of them. Never let one insinuate its anti-human way into your bedroom and the dark places of your heart. It will do worse than damn you – it will make you a creature like it!

On this very scary night, I only have 3 words to reassure you: vampires don’t exist. You can go bad places, even do bad things, but nothing can steal your soul.

Did you know that a 3 day religious observance is called a triduum? I didn’t! Tomorrow is All Saints' Day. I look forward to seeing you then!
