Fangtasia is the official spin-off club from HBO vampire series True Blood, and walking down the dark streets of Bethnal Green made us feel like part of the underworld.

Inside Resistance, the frantic rhythm of blues slide guitarist and singer John Drain got everyone in the mood for some neck-munching action. Then came the vampirous Little Bo-Freak, who shimmied on stage with fire and a snake wrapped around her neck, like Salma Hayek in From Dusk Til Dawn.

Meanwhile, host Lydia Darling showed off her trapeze skills, while grunge punk band The Whores brought destruction with a performance featuring a simulated abortion and a crucifix dildo. Be warned, fangbangers – this night comes with added bite.
