Its fun being a vampire.

Its fun being a vampire. by AspenMay featuring gold beaded bracelets
Inspired by the film, The Lost Boys. A very bohemian punk version of the vampire!  Everything you need to be a bohemian vampire...feathers in your ears, military jackets from another era, gypsy skirts and scarves, biker boots and gloves, motorcyle for terrorizing the boardwalk, studded accessories, skulls(you are undead after all, may as well flaunt it!), and where would any vampire be without a pair of shades!

"It's your choice, everything is your choice. Wake up."

Foreboding- a fearful apprehension; a feeling that something bad will happen.

Just watched the original, silent horror film, The Phantom of the Opera (1925)!  So creepy, even though I had seen pictures of the phantoms 's face before seeing the film, the unmasking gave me a little start!  Great sets and silent acting.  A bit dramatic, but when you can't talk...

Also I scoured the internet looking for the score.  It's Franz Schubert's Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 100.  There are four movements total, but the one featured in the film was the 2nd movement.  It's great, the piano and strings take turns creating the foreboding march and the haunting melody.  Here is a link to listen on YouTube: Schubert- Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 100, 2nd Mov.
