Storyline

Set in modern times, vampires roam the Earth and are humans' mortal enemies. However, a substitute has been found for human blood, a substitute that vampires can consume with the same effect as human blood. This is True Blood. Now humans and vampires can co-exist in harmony, and even form relationships. But there will always be rogue elements on both sides ready to exploit the uneasy truce. Written by grantss |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | To shoot the title sequence, the production crew took a four day trip to Louisiana, Chicago (where the church was filmed), and Seattle (for the bar scenes and writhing bodies). They would jump out of their cars as soon as they saw something they liked, or got permission to shoot people's homes, like the man in the rocking chair. He later had a few beers with them. Executive Producer Mark Bayshore is the man dancing with the girl, her arm around him, and his sons are the boys with berry juice over their faces. See more » |

To Arlene's children: You make me so happy I never had any of you. Eric Northman: No, c'mon Pam, they're funny. They're like humans, but miniature. 'Teacup humans'. See more » |
