It may not be long before there are even more video games vampires. No, Konami hasn't announced another Castlevania title. Instead, it seems that HBO is planning for a game based on their show True Blood
Currently in its second season, True Blood imagines a world where vampires are real and living among us. Naturally, it doesn't take long for things to get kinky.

According to superannuation, HBO has filed a trademark registration for the property in relation to games with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. It's for "television receivers or with video or computer monitors, video games, computer games, game programs, video game discs, video game cartridges, video game CD-ROMs, video game cassettes, handheld video game devices, games, online games and electronic games."

A vampire dating game, perhaps? Or maybe a murder mystery?

There have been no hints that a True Blood game is in development, so HBO may be trademarking the property for games just in case. Regardless, fans can now commence feverish speculation.
