Yeah, I'm enjoying doing this, although it can be a bit of a chore. Yep, I've read some of those theories you mentioned - it's interesting. I've already subverted the genre in one way - by writing a contemporary, completely unsupernatural novel about incest, which is a very vampiric trait and a theory that the critics of novels like Dracula love to extol. Basically the human siblings use each other for their narcissitic needs, feeding on each's love for the other, and keeping the bloodline 'pure'.
My latest novel I'm trying to make a little different by using the Lilith myth - since succubi/incubi are said by some scholars to be the original vampiric entities.
Ooooh, I always wanted to be Lestat's mother, Gabrielle. I just loved her independence and cool amorality.
