The 23 Best Vampire Shows And Films To Watch This Halloween

Hollywood has long enjoyed an on-again, off-again love affair with vampires. Many of us equate Peak Vampire with the late 2000s/early 2010s, when the Twilight franchise had teenagers lined up at the megaplex for midnight premieres. (I, of course, was one of them). But bloodsuckers have been drawing audiences since long before people knew the name Edward Cullen. The monsters initially sank their fangs deep into Hollywood in the 1930s, upon the release of Dracula. Although the film wasn’t Tinseltown’s first vampire project, it was the first to reach a mainstream audience and achieve critical acclaim. Dracula’s success inspired Universal to bring back the evil Count in five separate sequels and spin-offs in the years that followed—arguably spawning one of Hollywood’s first franchise behemoths. Since then, the vampire craze has ebbed and flowed, with the Twilight years relishing a noticeable spike. But with two more tales hitting streaming services in recent months—Peacock’s Vampire Academy and AMC’s Interview With the Vampire—it’s worth asking: Are vamps cool again? And a better follow-up: Have they ever not been cool?
