My name is Lauren (@poppylaur on TT, u/hi.poppylaur on IG) and my girlfriend, Alyssa (@alysswilldiss on TT, u/alyssafunnyofficial on IG) and I have created a sapphic vampire romcom web series called Pain in the Neck! 

To survive the apocalypse, a melodramatic human finds herself under the protection of a goofy (kind of cute, but annoying) vampire.

When we meet our two main characters, it’s 34 days into the zombie apocalypse and Ruby, the human, is sick of being trapped in the house with her vampire roommate, Helena. Helena feeds on Ruby because there are no other humans around, and in exchange, Helena protects Ruby from zombies and fetches her cans of Spam. They constantly bicker because Helena is an ancient vampire stuck in her ways and Ruby… is an actress. The longer they spend together, the more they realize that maybe being stuck with each other isn’t so bad. That’s right- we’re talking an enemies to friends to lovers arc!

It's a goofy, campy show where the sapphic romance is front and center. Think What We Do In The Shadows meets Glee (with less music) meets Carmilla. It's a survival story for characters, but in the end, all they really need to survive is each other. And for once, none of the gay characters die because one of them is already dead! 

We’re currently fundraising on Kickstarter if you wanna check it out! And if you’d like to donate, we’d love you forever. If you can’t donate, sharing the campaign on your socials is still fang-tastic! (We legally had to do at least one vampire pun.)
