We may be almost half way through the final season of True Blood, but the fun doesn’t have to stop there – oh, no! If the thought of being without your favourite residents of Bon Temps to look forward propels you into a downward spiral, then fear no more – because there’s plenty of new (and pretty cool) merchandise to fill that void!

If you’re looking for any possible way to bring the spirit of the show home with you, then look no further than the new POP! Vinyl figures. Yes, FUNKO have now introduced a new range of the popular figurines based around True Blood! The cute 3.5” figures are stylized aptly around the characters on the show, with a figurine of telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse available in her Merlotte’s waitress outfit. We know the big question will be what characters are available in POP! figures? Well, none other than the ex-Sheriff himself, Eric Northman, looking as suave as ever as his figurine self, along with his partner in crime Pam, and for all the werewolf fans there is of course Alcide as well. In addition to that there is Lafayette and Bill Compton – all will be available via the HBO Shop soon!
If that wasn’t enough to sink your teeth into, then perhaps something to liven up any party; a cookery book, True Blood Drinks & Bites. 45 quick and easy recipes to transform any home gathering (or video store) into your very own rocking nightclub! With a wide range of appetizers, cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks there is something to cater to everyone’s taste. So have your own ‘Bon Temps’ (good times) and enjoy creating some refreshments from Merlotte’s or Fangtasia or chow down on some recipes inspired by the Fortenberry family. With rather exciting names such as Maenad a Trois, Skinwalkers and Vamp repellent, you’re sure to find something to make the party go through the night (but be sure to get back in the house before dawn!). True Blood Drinks & Bites is created by Alan Ball, Gianna Sobol and Benjamin Hayes, with recipes by Dawn Yanigahara (photographs by Alex Farnum) and is available via the HBO Shop, here.
Whilst the true death may be approaching for the programme itself, let the show live on Truebies, and commemorate the occasion with your very own Sookie, or see out the finale in style with some delicious bites and cocktails!
