If you are really looking for the ultimate vampire look then you'll need some custom fitted fangs.  These custom fitted fangs from Scarecrow are molded from your own teeth.  Here are some instructions on how to properly install the fangs. You basically mix up the chemicals and follow the simple instructions.  You'll want to wait around 15 minutes once you attach the fangs before you eat or drink so that they harden properly. The fangs adhere to your teeth using dental adhesive which is non toxic. The kits are available in standard size and a smaller more subtle size. Refill kits are available as well.

Vampire fangs are also available in glow in the dark variety or or chrome finish as well. Add some fake blood and your ready for the night.

When a regular beverage just won't quench your thirst consider an alternative. Now there's blood the energy cocktail. Don't worry kids its not real blood it only looks like it. This energy drink is supposedly coming out this January brought to you by the same folks that created the Mana Energy potion. Its packed with all the good stuff you little vampires need.

Did you hear the one about the vampire, ghost and werewolf?

They are all living under one roof in a little flat outside Bristol on the BBC's Being Human. The show stars Lenora Crichlow as the initially meek and unassertive ghost, Russell Tovey as the unassuming werewolf and Aidan Turner as the vampire. The three are the most unlikely of roommates to share a spot of tea let alone a flat. The series follows their quest to be more human again, to live together, to have some assemblance of a normal life. You know doing stuff like holding a job, having a relationship that sort of thing. The show presents an interesting mix of dramatic moments, comedic relief and generally scary moments such as the werewolf's transformation from human to his wolf incarnate form. It takes some time for the trio to build their confidence and learn to harness the powers of their individual conditions but when it does happen it is fun to watch.

BBC America is currently showing the 1st series and the second series is being filmed now and is scheduled to debut in January of 2010.

There's some amazing video here showing how George is transformed from his human to werewolf form and two prequel videos produced to promote the show.
