In this episode of Writers Drinking Whiskey, we delve into the fascinating intersection of vampire lore and creative entrepreneurship with a unique author and shop owner who has reimagined what vampire-themed books and business can be. Rejecting typical occult imagery like skulls, Marita Voyvod-Crandle instead curates an experience centered around items vampires themselves would treasure—leather journals, antique fountain pens, and objects that emphasize magic over macabre. This conversation about authenticity in supernatural spaces, creative business development, and the subtle art of worldbuilding that extends beyond fiction into physical retail experiences will leave you laughing and thinking.

Today’s drinking game: drink whenever we say “vampire!”

Bios:
William R. Hincy: “Some people run from their demons; others sit down and have cocktails with theirs.” William R. Hincy is a man who does and writes about the latter. Having become a writer after deciding it was the only sensible thing for a problem drinker to do, Hincy aspires to use literature to connect society on an emotional level through characters who no longer create messes but have instead become the mess. Between rounds, Hincy has won 3 American Fiction Awards, an International Book Award, and his personal anthology of short fiction WITHOUT EXPIRATION was named one of the Best Books of 2020 by Kirkus Reviews. He now lives outside Los Angeles with his wife and kids, having found solace in the notion that the only things sacred are self and whiskey-winged interludes.

Colin Dickey is the author of five books of nonfiction: Under the Eye of Power: How Fear of Secret Societies Shapes American Democracy; The Unidentified: Mythical Monsters, Alien Encounters, and Our Obsession with the Unexplained; Ghostland: An American History in Haunted Places; Afterlives of the Saints: Stories from the Ends of Faith; and Cranioklepty: Grave Robbing and the Search for Genius. He is also the co-editor (with Joanna Ebenstein) of The Morbid Anatomy Anthology.

He has written on fringe culture, conspiracy belief, the paranormal and the occult, as well as death and dying, for a variety of publications, including The New Republic, Lapham’s Quarterly, The Believer, Slate.com, The Atlantic, The Los Angeles Times, and The Smithsonian, among many others.
