I think for female readers, I don't know, there's an element of like dating for women is inherently scary.

And I think having something like on the page is so like overtly monstrous.

It kind of has a safe space to, it gives you a safe space to play around with these concepts that

feel very different when it's all like out in the open.

So having someone who is like a vampire who is threatening a town in a very horrific kind of way, it's very, it's putting all of the worst qualities right out in the open and then addressing them and getting past them in ways that you can't do in real life.

Like the monsters are behind closed doors.

And so I think it's playing with the inherent fears that we have

And who knows, maybe I'm looking too far into this, but I think I can see it in myself, that the inherent fears that we have in ourselves and then just giving voice to it, I suppose.

Yes, absolutely.

It's the I can fix him mentality, but I suppose in a lot more tangible, I can make him stop killing people for me.

I don't know.

And it is just so compelling endlessly.

I don't know why.

I guess it's the idea that the love they have is so powerful.

It changes their like very being.

And that's compelling.

Yeah.

Yes.

Yes, very much.

Yeah.
