Vampire Protection Necklace...

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 06:58:45 -0400

$24.00
Are you more afraid now than ever of Vampires?

Then this necklace is a 'must have'!

Since their recent 'coming out of the coffin' & desire to 'mainstream' themselves in society we are all at a hightened risk for random Vampire attacks. It's not that they aren't trying to adjust, but even with that new synthetic blood on the market, it's still in their nature. A little added security is always a good thing, especially if you are thinking about dating one of these guys.

For your protection this necklace includes:
~The traditional CROSS, which can hold Vampires at bay & render gravesites useless to them.
~A MIRROR for checking to see if in fact the 'entity' in question is a Vampire. No reflection means you best be alert. I've also been told that mirrors aggravate them 'to death', since they can't even see their own reflection.
~A SILVER chain that wraps around, which can come in quite handy when you're 'necking' with a Vampire.

The details--

Measures:
Cross- 1"/25mm
Mirror- 3/4"/18mm
Chain-18"/45.72cm (**can be shortened upon request)

**24"/60.96cm (shown in 4th photo) also available-contact me for details
