25 of the Sexiest Vampire Moments Ever Caught on Television

Vampires may be dangerous, and they definitely bite, but we just can't get enough of these beautiful bloodsuckers. There have been countless vampires throughout film history, but the big screen isn't the only place where you can catch these creatures lurking in the dark. The vampire craze hit a real renaissance in the 2000s, and we've collected the GIFs to prove it. (It's not over — The Vampire Diaries star Ian Somerhalder is taking his fangs to Netflix.) You might want to turn the AC way up . . . and put away the garlic.
