Today’s vampire is a good listener. He cares about our love lives and our problems, which is strange because we’re supposed to be his food. Humans just assume that we are the center of the universe and so, faced with a literary creation that should, by all rights, just conk us over the head and suck us down like Slurpees, we’ve decided that we’re too fascinating to be eaten. And so the modern vampire stalks, seduces, sleeps with, and cries over us. They don’t eat us.
