There are currently fourteen books in the series with book number fifteen set to be released in November.
Over the past few years fans have been asking for a Morganville movie. Now, thanks to kickstarter, the Morganville Vampires are coming to life as a web TV series. With the help of fans across the world they have reached their initial goal of $75,000 and with only hours left in the campaign they currently stand at over $80,000. The more they raise the better the series will be. The series will currently be made into episodes 10-15 minutes in length.
It's not too late for YOU to be a part of Morganville, literally. With plenty of rewards to choose from including being a "virtual guest". Pledges range anywhere from $5 and up to $10,000 or more. You can pick up perks like digital downloads, dvds, posters, Morganville jewelry and even bunny vampire slippers. Not to mention a signed head shot of Amelie played by Amber Benson. Oh, did I forget to mention that? YES...THE Amber Benson will be playing Amelie, the founder of Morganville.
