Director Patrick Higgs created this 6-minute short for the Southwest Indiana Film Fest and released it in 2014. Done as a bit of a travel commercial for Dubois County it starts with a brief history lesson of the vampires leaving Romania due to persecution and heading to the States (there is mention later that their location was, at one point, influenced by the vampire hunter Abe Lincoln being further south at the time.

We are then into a series of vox-pop with various residents (tellingly many have plasters on their necks and there are plenty of lost pet posters). In the main positive – though one factory worker is rather negative about his co-workers. Probably the most amusing is the moment with the baseball team and the coach yelling at a vampire for crying (blood tears) as there is no place for tears in baseball.
It is a silly, amusing little diversion that likely means a little more if you are from that neck of the woods.
