True Blood Drinking Game + Cocktail

Share:

Vampires are out of the coffin — and your glass should be out of the cabinet.

The Rules

  • Sip — a vampire is shown drinking TrueBlood from a bottle at a bar or home
  • Sip — Sookie Stackhouse reads someone's thoughts with a pained wince
  • Sip — Bill Compton says 'Sookeh' in his Louisiana drawl
  • Sip — Jason Stackhouse pulls a move reckless that is technically not his fault
  • Sip — Lafayette Reynolds refers to himself in the third person or reads someone to filth
  • Drink Twice — Eric Northman uses his authority as Sheriff of Area 5 to solve a problem with menace
  • Drink Twice — Sam Merlotte shifts into a dog for surveillance purposes
  • Drink Twice — Tara Thornton makes a choice she was explicitly told not to make
  • Shot — Fangtasia is shown at night with Eric on his throne at full intimidation
  • Shot — the Maenad ritual at Merlotte's reaches full chaotic possession
  • Chug — Bill sacrifices his vampire health to save Sookie from a supernatural threat
