I was a very imaginitive boy when I was younger and read R.L Stine and loved monsters A LOT! I was/am also a night owl so I can stay up late at night and hate early mornings. So, being the monster lover that I am/was I attributed this to being a vampire. I was REALLY disappointed when my fangs never grew in ;)
