Dandridge is the most discreet vampire


Think about it. He doesn't let anyone in on the fact that Amy is a dead ringer for his long ago lover. He talks with Charley's mom about trivial stuff and not once snitches on him, as he prefers to deal with the snoop like a man. Before turning Evil Ed, he hints to him on knowing who he is but no need to discuss it openly. That takes understanding and Evil trusts him for that. Dandridge mentions his lover in passing to Amy when she spots the old painting without going in detail. He also doesn't talk about his life or about Billy Cole, his roommate and servant; in fact, Dandridge doesn't even mention his servant by name at all. That's real confidence and some real discretion.

You know him and Billy were having hot undead coffin sex

Seriously doubt it.

Not with the way he reacted to Amy. He is clearly a very normal vampire.

I thought he was a rather weak-looking head vampire. I was never scared 1 time looking at him, like a Mr. Barlow.

reply

Yes he was. Thats why it didnt make sense when he went psycho in the dance club in front of a hundred witnesses.

He lost his cool when the bouncer was in his face and wouldn't budge, which caused him to vamp out. Same thing a werewolf does or any other creature when riled up.
