Boo! number 3 with your "meet" is a tricky question. Cuz they definitely met, but in a tv episode (which was better than most of those movies!)
Also, Greek mythology and Halloween... I dunno.
I do really like that Dracula was released on Valentine's Day. Guess scared hugging was encouraged!
I actually wasn't trying to be tricky with #3 - I completely forgot about the tv episode!
I went with the mythology question because I was thinking about monsters.
And yeah, I like the Dracula on Valentine's Day idea - scared hugging and neck nibbling. Interestingly, in the novel, vampires only bite members of the opposite sex. It's not a rule or anything, but that's the way it goes.
