This is unusually redundant of Woot. Still, funny shirt. And your link with the Rated Awesome Blade vid on it is even funnier!

Reading these comments makes me feel old. I remembered the original vampires with no problem (Nosferatu, Dracula, Lily Munster) but had problems with the 1990s TV varieties.

@spilzer: That is clearly David from the Lost Boys, not Michael.

@megatron_g1: The one that didn't get interviewed is Lestat.

Congrats Ben, awesome work!

It is pretty obvious that the blond vampire in the lower left corner is not Michael Emerson but David, Keifer Sutherlands character.

Awesome shirt. I'm handing you my money now.

I'm glad I read before I write! I was about to post the exact same comment, she should OBVIOUSLY be in this shirt!

Completely ruined the shirt for me.

Ditto.

"Slain."

(How pathetic is that...?)

No Elvira. Was she even a vampire? Oh well. It's got Spike. I'm sold.

I doubt a WXL would fit as I have read numerous complaints about how they are so small they would barely fit a pre-teen. I was thinking Mens Large, but I fear the men's shirts might be really long.

Im 5'4" and 180lbs and I wear the WL but it's because I like mine fitted, I would recommend a WXL if she wears them a little loose or a mens' Medium (my husband's ML look awful on me.) I hope this helped.

I understand that the show is called "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and for everyone, even those that have not watched the show to get the reference, Spike was "The One to be Slayed."
But for my own selfish reasons and opinion I would love for Spike to be labelled with, "The Big Bad." (later seasons of the series, Spike, not as awesome.)

And I can't get over how much Selene looks like Hugh Jackman's Van Helsing.

And what is listed here as 'Generic Vampire' is Bela Lugosi as Dracula from the 1931 'Dracula'.

Otherwise, you got them all.

It is Lestat, but its Tom Cruise's character from Interview with the Vampire, not Brad Pitt's.

I'ts because he is about to kill Edward, as he rightfully should.

Lots of complaints, yet not a single complaint about a lack of Jerry the Vampire from Fright Night. :[

What, no Blacula?!

THAT'S RACIST!!!!! (kiddin')

But seriously, no Blacula?

I'm wearing my "Gingers" shirt right now!

I truly love this shirt. Leaving out the text would've made it much cooler though, IMO. And it would make a great poster as well. I might have to wear this shirt the next time I'm at the Count Basie Theater in Red Bank.

Now I'm in the mood for Count Chocula...

Nice shirt, but it would have been an insta-buy with Alucard and Eli on it.

Team Southern Gentleman!

I'm 5'5" and weigh about 165. I have LOTS of woot shirts and several of the WXL are a little tight right now. My 12-year-old daughter looks just right in the WXL so they definitely run small. Depends on the color. The ML will fit but they are definitely long. I ordered a couple of those and had to cut the bottoms off.

Where's Count Blah?

She sounds very close to me and I buy the ML. It is not too long on me. The WXL looks terrible, and while I can get it on, it is way too tight.

(Edit: My post lost the quote, but this was in response to xninjagrrl.)

Wasn't this shirt run before?
Or did I see it in the derby a while ago

And this is the Jerry you respond with?

I'd be more inclined to call him "The Brooding One," frankly.

Yes, I have three small kids. What?

I swear I've seen this shirt some where else before...

Absolutely.

Always! Not a fan of remakes. The Shining? Nightmare on Elm Street? Pitiful.

Whoops, never mind.

Maybe I'm speaking out of line but I thought the new Fright Night was pretty good. Although maybe that was just because of a particular vampire hunter played by David Tennant.

Thanks guys, I will go with a ML just to be safe. I hear the MM is like a slightly roomier WXL but Woot shirts are all over the place. I have a few dozen WS that are all different sizes.

Heck, I may try a MM too and if it is too small she can gift to another one of our vampire obsessed friends!

I am so happy they picked Spike over Angel! Who can resist his doodled cheekbones?

Where's Eddie Murphy (Vampire in Brooklyn)? He could be the Vampire with a "banana" in his "tail pipe."

My kids love Bunnicula!!!!!

I totally agree with you on that.
