🏰🌹🦇🧛🏽♀️🧛🏾♂️🦇🌹🏰

Celebrating Vampire Culture
If you noticed that victorian, vintage, and Vampire artistry is lacking diversity-you’re right. Here at Vamp Boss, we even have a hard time finding inspirational Vampire photos of people of Indigenous, Asian, African, and Latin descent.

This is the innaugaral year of the BIPOC Vamp Day and was inspired by #BlackFaeDay.
BIPOC Vamp Day focuses on getting the Black, Indigenous, Asian, Latin, and Pacific Islander enthusiasts of ornate Vampire culture to be celebrated and seen.
