True Blood is based on Charlaine Harris' novel Southern Vampires. This bold, terrifying new series is from Six Feet Under creator Alan Ball, who returns to HBO. Three years after its inception, True Blood is finally here. It delves into the world of novelist Charlaine Harris, described by Emmy winner Ball as "popcorn for smart people." It also features a strong cast that focuses on a variety of misfits. True Blood is guaranteed to get your heart racing. The story takes place in Bon Temps, a small town in Louisiana. Thanks to a Japanese invention called TruBlood, vampires can buy blood to survive, transforming from legendary monsters to ordinary citizens overnight. Although humans are no longer vampires' food, and in theory the two can coexist peacefully, understanding of these creatures that "walk out of the coffin" still needs to be strengthened. Religious leaders and government officials have chosen their sides, but in the small town of Bon Temps, the trial has not yet begun. Sookie Stackhouse (played by Anna Paquin) is a barmaid who can read minds and knows the feeling of being expelled from society. Since vampires have no brain waves that she can spy on, she is happy to deal with them, especially the handsome 173-year-old Bill Comton (played by Stephen Moyer). But when Sookie is involved in a series of mysterious events following Bill's arrival, tolerance will be forced to be tested. When vampires walk out of the coffin, walk out of the survival gap that is opposed to humans, and walk out of the lonely curse at the top of the food chain, will our world still be the same world as before?
