Based on "The Southern Vampire Mysteries" novels by Charlene Harris, 2008's "True Blood" is set in a world where synthetic blood, called Tru Blood, has eliminated the need for vampires to remain hidden from the rest of the world. Since this "Great Revelation," vampires have found themselves divided, with some believing co-existing with humans goes against their predatory nature, and others believing equality is both possible and desirable. The show follows Sookie Stackhouse, a telepath who falls in love with Bill Compton, a vampire. The series primarily takes place in Bon Temps, Louisiana, a small town that deals with its fair share of murders, disappearances, and supernatural threats that Sookie and Bill constantly get wrapped in.
