True Blood does American Gothic

Posted by Glennis Byron on June 26, 2011 in News tagged with Entertainment Weekly, True Blood Season 4

Rather a good marketing ploy for both True Blood and Entertainment Weekly! I’d certainly buy these ‘collector’s copies’ if I had the opportunity.

Season 4 starts tonight (June 26) on HBO. This season is based on Dead to the World, in which Eric is cursed by witches and has amnesia. He takes shelter in Sookie’s house and completely devoid of power and politics, they fall in love.

Here’s a brief preview, gets better as it goes on:

About the Author – Glennis Byron

Glennis Byron has written 267 articles on The Gothic Imagination.

My main research interests are in nineteenth-century and contemporary Gothic. My next project, tentatively entitled Blood Money: Marketing the Gothic, will examine the ways in which the international publishing industries manufacture, construct, categorise and, in a sense, even define, the Gothic in contemporary culture. Along with Dale Townshend, I run the M.Litt in The Gothic Imagination at the University of Stirling.
