I have a new favorite Weekly World News headline...

The reigning champ for the last twenty years has been UFO Aliens Rape Nun, Baby Lives To Speak Intergalactic Language.

It has finally been unseated by Redneck Vampire Terrorizes Trailer Park (sure to strike a chord with the paper's target demographic), complete with a photo of the bucolic undead horror.

  1. Vampires usually leave just a trickle of red on their victims necks.

  2. Really? My favorite has always been Hillary Has Sex with Aliens! ("I thought she was gay," says bewildered President")

  4. The Weekly World News.

    It's like The Onion for poor people.

  5. I'm going to have to dig out my CD of Michael Longcor's "Truck Driving Vampire" in honor of this.

    Oh I'm a truck drivin' vampire,
    I only drive by night.
    A truck drivin' vampire,
    undead but not uptight
    I'm a good'ol nosferatu
    and an 18-wheelin' stud
    Wearing white socks,
    drinking Blue Ribbon,
    and redneck blood

  6. Only slightly OT, as Tam enjoys reading: Christopher Moore's "The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove." Lured from the sea, "Steve" becomes a hungry - and aroused - single-wide in a small town with lots of drugs and an ex-queen of the desert movie star.
    Moore takes on vampires in a couple of his other books.

  7. Sounds like the Weekly World News has been cribbing from Andrew Cox

  8. I think my favorite Weekly World News headline was something along the lines of "Albert Einstein's Brain Escapes from Lab --- and Goes on Rampage!!"
