One with so many powers is now powerless to gaze into a simple looking glass. What does this malaise represent? No turning back? A release from mankind, yet the need for mankind in order to survive?

Widow Maker - The city lay shrouded in the distance, looming like a fragile virgin clothed in white. The year was 2785. Vincent’s keen eyesight cut through the fog, singeing over the towering steel buildings like a guided laser. He was searching for something lost, something that he would probably never reclaim. continue

The Haunted House - "Over here, I tell you! The coffin is over here!" Mona rolled her eyes up at Frank. Idiot. He was acting if he'd found the secret entrance in the wall rather than her. She had a good mind to turn back and let Frank stand his chances of being sacrificed by the coven of she-male vampires that inhabited the dungeon of the castle. . . . continue

The Crying Veil - Anna's eyes widened in terror as the wedding veil she had situated on her head was suddenly covered with blood - drops of blood. She detected crying, pitiful crying as if someone in her head were in agony.... continue

A Few Things You May Need to Know About Vampires

If you're lucky enough to encounter one of these children of the night, don't blow everything by asking if you can snap a quick picture for your photo album. Vampires are very sensitive when it comes to cameras; I guess you could call them camera shy. So, bend a little and settle for a charcoal drawing. Better yet, bring your Etch-A-Sketch.

If you and the boys invite a vampire over for Monday Night Football, don't put any garlic salt on his buffalo wings. However, Liquid Smoke and MSG are A-OK. During halftime, ask him to entertain everyone by transforming from vampire to bat, then back again.

If you decide to introduce your girlfriend to a vampire, you must insist that she wear a turtle neck sweater and shades that have been decorated with crosses. For added security, encourage her to slice up a pan of garlic and onions. She should not wash her hands in the 'Madge' stuff.

If a vampire accompanies you to a skating rink, pick an establishing without the rotating crystal balls. One accidental reflection could turn the rink very rank.

If a vampire 'Trick or Treats' your house on Halloween, steer away from the orange and black wrapped candies. It could be in your best interest to splurge and toss a few York Patties into his bag.

If a vampire visits your alteration shop, don't suggest fuchsia, paisley or country blue material for his new cape. Traditional black makes the biggest fashion statement with vampires.

Never ask your vampire friend to impersonate Elvis at the local talent show. There's been bad blood between the two ever since they fought over a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich one night In the Ghetto.

If you invite a vampire to spend the day, don't offer him the kid's bedroom if it's located on the upper story of your home. The solar window will not be appreciated. Instead, allow him to sleep in the box your new refrigerator came in last week.

When purchasing a pet for your vampire friend, opt for a bat or white wolf. If either has yellow eyes, you're sure to end up at the top of your vampire friend's Christmas list this year.

The Vampire & The Cowboy - He had ridden so far, so long, that Jack's thighs still smelled of smoked leather from the saddle that sat astride his twenty-year old mare, Ladonya. And the horse wasn't happy about the extended ride. She had been blowing through her nostrils at him for the last ten minutes, the last gust a gnat's ass from Jack's ear. continue

The Ethnic Vampire Wars -A thick layer of fog lay captive in the valley below the castle. It was the Ethnic Vampire Wars. continue

Fashion Statement - Vampires - Vincent revolved his dark head slightly, moving his eyes mysteriously over the crowd. They loved him, without a doubt. His popularity was certainly nothing to scoff about. But would they love him still, if they knew that he was a vampire? continue

Pretty In Pick - “Right here – pile it on right cheer,” the hick told Qieu, pointing his half-full fork of spaghetti to his plate. continue

Goat's Pine al la Mode - Goat lived in a valley that was sparsely clothed with pines, red cedars, and sumac that turned a vivid red each autumn. As so was the season, for autumn had settled in for a brief visit that soon would welcome winter. continue

Sweet Tooth, Sweet Fangs - Quinn studied the box of chocolates, finding them irresistible. continue

Vampire Online - Jewel entered the chatroom, settling in for a relaxing night of frivolous chatter. The chats were always entertaining, and a pretty brainless way to chill out for the evening. continue

Oh, My Aching Fang! - “Ouch! Don’t touch it! Get away from me, you old sawbones!”

“Quit being such a baby,” Monique hissed, her beautiful pale face mere inches from Sandar's. “Well, it’s settled, dear. You’re going to need a dentist.” continue

Vampire For Hire - It wasn’t easy, obtaining a decent night job. In the first place, not many businesses were willing to do interviews for the night slots during the late evening hours, after the sun went down. Being a vampire, that was the only time when Jase could face the world – during the dark of night, that is. continue

The Vampire Bat, el Desmodus rotundas - Blood sucking demon? Flying devil? Parasite from hell? Could these cruel descriptions be related to our little winged friend, the Vampire Bat? Yes, I'm afraid so. However, the myths and legends that portray these winged lovelies are highly exaggerated. continue

Transformation of a Vampire - You see him in the black night, at first an ominous silhouette cloaked by the sheen of a silver moon high overhead. The unique power of transformation is one of the most alluring talents of a Vampire…

The shadow abruptly transforms from what appeared to be a man, into a wolf then vanishes into the night. For a moment, you believe you have imagined this phenomena but your sixth sense tells you that you've just crossed paths with a Vampire. continue

- Although our free party planner centers around All Hallows Eve, it has a lot of really neat ideas that can be incorporated into gothic & scary parties. Let's Party

Sky At Dawn sets the focus on vampires - funny, bumbling vampires. However, take note that a few of our tales measure a 4 on the Spooky Scale. Other than being a bit scary, all are 'wholesome'. Well, perhaps that's not the correct word to use. Let's just say that the language and content is 'nice', not naughty. Just scary.

However, 99% of our content is humor and on that note, please know that we cannot be responsible for those that laugh themselves to death.
