Week Twelve: Jesse Sample’s Freak of the Week “Moonlight”

Jesse Sample’s Freak of the Week airs EVERY WEDNESDAY at 6pm EASTERN only on RadioRadioX.com 

This is Jesse Sample. The vampire has long captivated the human imagination. No other creature of the night is so easily adorned with romance and mystery. Most vampires appear human and can alter their appearance, at will, into a form that puts mortal beings at ease. They can tempt their unassuming prey with ancient skill and take to the sky at the drop of a dime, or droplet of holy water.

But within the vampire exists a host of contradictions. While being immortal he is also locked out of the living world in many ways. Finding true love requires the possibility of loss. I’ve never encountered a tale of a vampire infecting a beautiful woman and then procreating with her to generate a pack of cute little Romanian babies. It doesn’t go down like that.

Even with all the freedoms afforded to this gentleman terror, he is always bound to his prey. We mortals have the freedom to die, which sounds weird, but we get to see if something else exists on the other side of this. If the Hindus are right, we get to give it another go. Not the vampire. He remains stuck in the world of need and addiction long after the thrill of the hunt has worn off. He will live to watch the sun die and then starve in the cold that remains.

But for now, he remains the king of going out in Saturday night.

Thanks to all of you tuned into RadioRadioX. This is the Freak of the week, “Moonlight.”
