HUNGUR MAGAZINE is a biannual print magazine of stories and poetry themed to vampires and especially vampires on other planets. Its focus is frightening and literary. Necessarily there will be some blood spilled, siphoned, or otherwise shed in the magazine, but never blood for the sake of blood.
Why vampires on other worlds? Because we wanted something a little different from the traditional vampire magazine. Oh, sure, we'll publish traditional vampire stories, provided they are well-written and have memorable characters . . . but we'd really like to combine science fiction and fantasy with vampires. We feel this will open the genre to new plots, new situations, new vampire canon. HUNGUR MAGAZINE is edited by Terrie Leigh Relf and L. A. Story Houry, and published by Sam's Dot Publishing. HUNGUR is an 8 1/2 by 11 magazine published twice a year, on All Souls Night [1 November] and on Walpurgisnacht [30 April]. The first issue will be released on All Souls Night, 2005.
