I didn't really know much about this show but it seemed interesting.

Then I read OP and saw it has vampires.

I'm out.

These are the kinds of vampires that carve poo poo into their bodies and don't really have anything in common with something like Twilight.

Good call, that and the one from Salem's Lot
vvvvv

Killing off a character like Van Helsing in such a way really looks like some poor attempt by the writers to pull out some GoT-esque "Gotcha!" death and it came off as really half-assed and stupid.

I really just wanted more David Warner and less obnoxious Asperger's Frankenstein, you fuckin' pricks :mad:

I might be way off on this but I feel like that Priest might've been the devil. The way he talked about her condition like being touched by the backhand of God, and the question in general. That coupled with his story about the exorcism and how there were no survivors, so how the gently caress did you survive then huh?

Either way he seemed sorta off.

I got the same vibe. Lucifer or not, there was definitely something sinister about him. Or he's really just a spiritual masochist of sorts.

Caliban doing a turn as the Phantom of the Opera?

I'm confused. That wasn't Caliban peaking around the corner of that gate, if that's the part you're referring to.
