Are you a fangbanger whose heart beats best for vamps? Then pay attention because NBC announced today that it will air the one-hour primetime special “Why We (heart) Vampires” on Friday, November 1st, at 8pm ET/PT.

The special will air before an all new “Grimm,” followed by the network’s new interpretation of “Dracula.” Hosted by NBCUniversal News Group’s Tamron Hall, “Why We (heart) Vampires” is a collection of fun, comedic interviews accompanied by entertaining clips from our favorite vampire moments.

From our fascination with vampires to their immortality and super-human powers, Hall will explore why these night stalkers continue to have such an enduring appeal.

Our attraction to vampires goes back decades, if not longer, and they continue to captivate our imaginations. Produced by NBC News’ Peacock Productions, “Why We (heart) Vampires” will feature a mix of some of Hollywood’s greatest vampire experts, including “Dracula’s” Victoria Smurfit; author Anne Rice; “True Blood’s” Kristin Bauer and Carrie Preston; Cassandra Peterson, best known as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark; “Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s” James Marsters, and more.
