What an AMAZING COINCIDENCE that Maker’s Day – the day we thank the vampire who turned each of us into vampires – happens to fall on June 10, the SAME EXACT DAY as the premiere of Season 5 of True Blood! Yes, it IS a very clever marketing ploy, Twitter hashtag, and Facebook page.

First, here’s a little video about it:
