Vampire. Mockumentary.

Do I have your attention?

Good.

What We Do In the Shadows (WWDITS) is a vampire mockumentary series, based on Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s 2014 film of the same name.

The film was set in Wellington, New Zealand, and starred Waititi and Clements as hapless vamps showing around a film crew.

The TV series is set in Staten Island, New York, USA, set around a different group of vampires with Waititi and the NZ crew showing up in cameos every now and then (every cameo is genius, tbh.)

In a surprise to absolutely no-one, I’m sure, the character which takes up the most room in my brain and heart is Nandor.

…A Queer vampire with depression who does craft projects to show affection and refers to crepe paper as ‘creepy paper.’

Yeah… I was hooked in from the first episode. I had no chance at escape, really — I love him.
