on hbo i can t get enough of this soapy southern fried vampire series in fact i m a sucker so to speak for pretty much any well done intelligent vampire tale unlike seemingly half of the adult female population though i m utterly immune to the supposed charms of the twilight saga and its sparkling non bloodsuckers i like my vampire fables complete with sex and blood thank you very much as for what s behind our collective obsession with the undead this recent new york times article attempts to psychoanalyze the fang fixation anyway there is plenty of sex and blood in bon temps louisiana the fictional setting for the show which centers around clairvoyant barmaid sookie stackhouse her 170 year old vampire boyfriend bill compton bill s newly undead daughter jessica shape shifting roadhouse proprietor sam sookie s formerly demon possessed bff tara mysterious maenad maryann vampire head honcho eric and his tart tongued sidekick pam gay and fierce short order cook hustler porn site entrepreneur and erstwhile drug dealer lafayette sookie s dumb but sexy brother jason and a collection of other odd and often oddly lovable characters of course being the design geek that i am i m nearly as fascinated by the physical spaces the show s characters inhabit as i am the steamy storylines they become entangled in let s take a little tour shall we warning mild spoilers ahead bill s digs no surprise are my favorite imbued with the sort of dark glamour and crumbling grandeur that makes me go weak in the knees it s a fitting home for bon temps resident victorian era vamp bottom photo from true blood net bill s home probably looks much the same as it did when he last resided here as a human in the 1860s it s all florid peeling wallpaper dark stained woodwork fine but threadbare rugs flickering gaslight and aged ornate furnishings in a word yummy and yeah i think i d find it hard to resist in such lushly gothic surroundings too bill plays the piano like any well bred southern gentleman and doesn t seem terribly interested in current decorating trends but he is starting to outfit his home with modern amenities like a wii system with which he rather heartbreakingly plays virtual golf on a sunlight dappled course daddy is no fun at all but his sumptuous red velvet settee is pretty sweet top and bottom photos from truebloodnet this is where the magic happens people though if i were sookie i think i d quietly remove the portrait presumably of bill s civil war era bride from the mantle it might put a bit of a damper on their frequent torrid make up sex after all eric the viking vamp kicks back in bill s bathtub yes please sookie s family home by contrast is all warm cozy granny style photo from truebloodnet and i mean that literally sookie lived in the pleasantly dilapidated farmhouse with her late grandmother and from the looks of it she hasn t made many changes since her beloved gran was killed in the kitchen during season one still the stackhouse home represents warmth family and normalcy in a world that s gone a bit mad it may not push any design envelopes but it s homey and welcoming and that is as it should be eric s bar fangtasia is a redneck roadhouse turned tawdry over the top vision of vampire cool blood red walls flocked upholstery and faux goth accouterments complete a look that seems geared more to satisfying the leering tourists idea of what an undead hangout should look like than a place that incredibly hot thousand year old nordic vampires would call home away from home ok i guess what really completes the look is a floor full of gore from a messily staked vampire bartender rip longshadow photo by jaded mystery sam s restaurant and bar is the setting for much of the show it s where the townsfolk meet and where many of the main characters work or play can you smell the beer and burgers i can t tell you how despondent i was when it appeared that lafayette had met his maker in last season s cliffhanger love him anna paquin may have won a golden globe for her grating overly accented sookie but nelsan ellis brings it week after week the man was robbed if you ask me photo from truebloodnet oh dear it looks like a thrift store exploded in here that said lafayette always does the best he can with the tools available to him not surprisingly he s turned a dreary little abode furnished with garage sale castoffs into a funky colorful crash pad with attitude who knew that he had a tiki fabulous side photo from truebloodnet what is that on the wall some sort of santeria shrine oh lafayette you are so complex given the untamed bacchanalias that take place here maryann s stately spread is deceptively buttoned up the classic architecture is accented with touches of exotica that presumably provide clues to maryann s past and true identity there s the fresco depicting pan in the courtyard for starters as well as the tribal masks and the ancient fertility statue inside come to think of it the shape of that statue is oddly reminiscent of the horned demonic looking bull creature that attacked sookie get out of the house now sam overflowing trays of juicy delectable food are ever present at maryann s was that a human heart in the stew her houseboy was preparing for last week s poolside party turned orgy what is this woman up to and is she really a woman at all what other clues do you think true blood s sets reveal about bon temps residents and the town s supernatural goings on any southerners out there with quibbles about how the region s architecture and interiors are depicted on the series most importantly could eric be any hotter if you have theories thoughts or opinions on the show its set design and or eric s hotness quotient
