I love the HBO show "True Blood," in which the human heroine Sookie Stackhouse is having a torrid love affair with the vampire Bill Compton. The show has so many facets and twists and turns that one could probably write a PhD dissertation about the psychological ramifications of a human dating a vampire.
The show also includes telepaths, shape-shifters, werewolves, demons, etc., although so far the one serial killer on the show in Season One turned out to be a "normal" human.
But what I find most interesting is that the star, Sookie, is drawn to Bill for the primary reason that since she can read the minds of all the humans she encounters, she cannot read Bill the vampire's mind!
Which leads me to speculate how many relationships in the real world would last if men and women could read the thoughts of their respective partners! Just something to think about.
