    Like seriously. This is a life or death situation.

    I finished playing this text-based interactive novel thing where you play as a newly turned vampire in 1800s New Orleans and you could play a gay/bi/straight character. I got addicted to it, and now that I'm done and don't have money for the sequel (which I heard isn't very good in comparison) I need Moar cute gay vamps in my life... ę_ę

    I signed out two books of collected paranormal romance, one of which didn't even have vamps in it, plus all the stories were straight, and I don't have high hopes for the second one being LGBT, so I'm having a withdrawal. .-.

    There is something definitely wrong with me. =w=

    I haven't read any myself, but I've heard of one called Carmilla. One of the earliest vampire books to date (Predates Dracula by 26 years): and it's about lesbians.

    Also, while trying to remember the name of Carmilla via google searches, I found a list of lesbian vampire books: Lesbian Vampire Books (113 books)

    A google search also gave me this list of gay vampire books: Best Gay Vampires (419 books)

    I don't personally know the quality of these books, but I've heard that Carmilla is really good. Hope this helps.

    I don't know how much you are into the gothic subculture, as most people are not, but.........

    Lost Souls by Poppy Z Brite is fantastic. A very much angsty teen novel including a 15 or so year old bisexual vampire named Nothing. The only reason I mentioned the goth thing is that the book is filled with Bauhaus and the Cure references. All around great angsty as fuck read.

    Shouldn't this thread be called "I need some gay vampire books, Lestat"?!

    All jokes aside, you can't get much gayer than the Vampire Chronicles. I cannot remember a single solidly hetero character. Ann Rice describes them as being asexual, but that's not the way they usually come across. Interview with the Vampire, the movie with the scene above, would be a good place to start.

    I'm not sure that this is exactly what you had in mind, but there is a mystery series by Dean James featuring ... a gay vampire called Simon Kirby-Jones. The first book is titled: Posted to Death.

    I believe Anne Rice has some gay couples in her vampire series. I don't care for vampire stories, but got to know a bit about this author on a Christian show in Canada called Context. She's a fascinating person. Yes, in Canada... a fairly conservative Christian show features a writer of erotica and vampire books in a positive light. I don't imagine it would fly amongst American evangelicals. LOL!

    Vampires, Anne Rice, and Jesus

    It's not really 'vampire' but Torchwood [BBC] has audio books that feature Captin Jack, who can die and then come back to life [infinite times].

    Anne Rice does a very good job of removing heteronormativity from her books (and they're also generally well written). If you're looking for erotica though I can't help ya.
