Five films from 2008 to 2012, based on Stephenie Meyer's novels, with Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. A teenager in rainy Forks, Washington, falls for a boy who turns out to be a vampire.
These are vampire stories, but the romantic kind. The older Dracula stories are all about dread, but these are much more about longing: lots of meaningful looks across the school canteen, lots of forest, and a werewolf who’d also quite like a chance.
Watch them in order, ideally all in one rainy weekend!
If you'd rather your vampires were brooding than terrifying, this one's for you. It's not much like the castle in tone, but it's a fun option.
The name means werewolf, so this one's for Team Jacob. Watch the films and decide whose side you're on before you ride.
