Maybe we just arenât trying hard enough đ€«
i can fix him!! no really.. i can âŠ
I got really defensive when I saw Buffalo Hunter Hunter on here but then I remembered that thereâs more than one vampire and I can accept those ones being called villains đ

Haha I get that reaction. I would say that while not all villainous, all the vampires are definitely terrifying and not the objects of desire. Iâve still got a little bit left of this book to finish right now.
Love this list! I can also think of 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King, Sunshine by Robin McKinley, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones, and maybe Dracula?

You're an angel! Adding them to the list. I've been hesitant to add Dracula because of his seduction element, although its not romantic or consensual. I'm willing to be pulled either direction haha
