Buffy and Angel Fan Fiction The Lure of the Vampire: Gender, Fiction and Fandom from Bram Stoker to Buffy "The Lure of the Vampire: Gender, Fiction and Fandom from Bram Stoker to Buffy the Vampire Slayer" explores the curiosity and fascination surrounding the enduring myth of Dracula and vampires. Over one hundred years after Bram Stoker's influential novel was published, an interest in vampires is still prevalent in popular culture. This is suggested by the recent popularity of such television shows as "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and it's spin-off, "Angel." Milly Williamson examines this phenomena and looks at the issues of gender pertaining to both vampires and their followers, the modern portrayal of vampires, the nature of identity and identification, and the fans themselves.

Angel (Buffy episode) - "Angel" is the seventh episode in the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Alternative universe (fan fiction) - An alternative universe (also known as alternate universe) is a type or form of fan fiction in which known, canonical facts about the universe being explored or written about, are deliberately changed. In Alternative Universe stories, characters' known motivations may vary considerably from their actual decisions. Dune (fan fiction) - The fictional Dune universe is generating a small, but growing amount of fan fiction. This is partly a consequence of disappointment among some fans with regard to the prequel novels written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. buffyandangelfanfiction |
