In aid of the Vampire Benevolent Society

 Welcome, welcome one and all. Thanks so much for making your way to the castle on such a stormy night. Please do come in where it's warm, myself and my family don't normally noticed the cold but we've had the heating put on especially for your visit, please let us know if you'd like it a little warmer. Oh don't mind little Hector his hiss really is worse than his bite.

Now if you'd like to just make your way up the stairs to the library. 

Please feel free to browse the books, there are some very old volumes. 

There are nibbles and drinks for everyone and my sister will be delighted to serve what you desire.

Now as you know this little soiree is in aid of the Vampire's Benevolent Society, such a worthy cause because as I'm sure you're all aware a Vampire isn't just for life but eternity and the costs do mount up so. My brother the Count will be joining us shortly and you ladies will be delighted to know he's the star prize of our charity auction later. He's certain to give the lucky winner an evening to remember. Now thought please make yourselves comfy and enjoy our hospitality, oh and if I could just remind everyone I'd be so grateful if they'd take a sign to display before they leave in aid of our new publicity campaign. Thank you for your time and...donations which will come later I'm sure.

I'd also like to give a big shout out to our Patron Holly's Horrorland 

who's sponsoring this Annual Soiree for the 5th year running.

If you'd like to pay her site a visit you'll find details of all 

the other fabulous people hosting their own little Vampire parties.
