MTV’s “After Hours” hosted by Josh Horowitz is known for being a bit unorthodox in its approach to celebrity interviews, and the show’s recent MTV Movie Awards edition turned into a group therapy session for some of our favorite vampires and werewolves. Check it out!

For “Teen Wolf” actor Tyler Hoechlin, it can be quite a challenge playing the role of the seemingly emotionless flesh-eater Derek Hale, but not for reasons you may think. Lately the thespian finds himself unable — and unwilling — to transition out of character! Luckily he’s not alone. There are other actors out there that are equally obsessed with their onscreen alter egos. In the below video Hoechlin finds himself huddled among the likes of fellow TV werewolf Joe Manganiello from “True Blood” as well as a pair of famous vampiresses — Manganiello’s co-star Kristin Bauer van Straten and Candice Accola from “The Vampire Diaries” — during a powerful Actors Anonymous session.

Manganiello begins by disclosing his addiction to his job, and when “After Hours” host Horowitz asks him to explore his feelings even further, he gets explicit. Moved by the candid discourse taking place in this circle of trust, Hoechlin jumps right in to reveal his affinity for mixing human blood with scotch as well as his dread of shaving.

Good times!
