Best known as one of the original cast members of The Real Vampire Wives of Obsidian Hills, Vivienne St. James is a 147-year-old vampire and self-proclaimed Greek goddess with a sharp tongue and sharper fashion sense.

Ayana Bakari
You’d never guess it by lookin at her, but Ayana Bakari is 326 years old. Once African royalty, she’s lived through empires, revolutions, and more human drama than she cares to count. Sharp-eyed and sharper-tongued, Ayana sees through everyone’s bullshit. Sometimes she’ll call you out on it, other times she’ll just watch you step in it and laugh later. She’s long past pretending to be impressed, and she finds endless amusement in watching humans stumble through a world they barely understand.

Tagline: My jewels are real, my fangs are sharp, and my patience is thin.

Dahlia Devine
Dahlia Devine will never tell you her age, or much of anything else, really. Over the years, she’s had several husbands, though no one’s ever seen them, which only fuels the gossip. The undisputed queen of deflection and decadence, Dahlia channels her secrets into spectacle. As the mastermind behind the cast’s most unforgettable trips, her decision to bring The Real Vampire Wives to Moonridge has everyone wondering what she’s really up to.

Tagline: You can’t bury the past. Trust me, I’ve tried.

Zara Dusk
Pink-haired pop princess turned self-proclaimed enlightened hippie, Zara Dusk traded the stage lights for meditation mats long ago. With her pet bat Mortimer always in tow, she’s far more interested in yoga and inner peace than chasing fame. Turned at 21 during her 1960s heyday, she still radiates the glow of eternal youth. A little spacey but endlessly kind, Zara’s the first to offer a hug—and maybe a crystal—to anyone who needs one.

Tagline: My chakras are aligned and my crystals are charged. I’m living my best death.

Caprice le Vein
Newly turned and still finding her fangs, Caprice le Vein is the fresh blood of the group. After a post-divorce bender in Las Vegas ended with eternal consequences, she’s been stumbling her way through the undead life heels first. She loves the spotlight, even when it turns on her, and she’s determined to prove she’s more than a punchline. Caprice may be the baby vamp of the bunch, but she’s ready to rise, shine, and finally own her power.

Tagline: I may be dead but I still know how to accessorize.

Everett was a shifter searching for a place to belong in 1958 when he first arrived in Moonridge. Cast out by his father and drifting through a world that didn’t yet have a place for a lonely, gay young man, he was an easy target for the wrong crowd. After a tragic betrayal, Everett was sacrificed to the Concord 13, binding his spirit to their dark agenda for decades. Now, as an unwilling ghost in the cult’s service, Everett is more bored and weary than he is vengeful. Trapped between worlds and tired of the shadows, Everett’s deepest desire is a second chance at life, and love.

As the son of a wealthy and influential father, he is used to getting exactly what he wants, yet he remains consumed by a bitter jealousy of the magical residents of Moonridge.

As Esther’s eldest son and a powerful wielder of magic, Ronald carries the weight of both his family’s power and a quiet, enduring grief. In the racially divided landscape of 1958 Moonridge, his deep love for Agnes Thornton was a flame that Agnes’s mother, Rachel, extinguished. Despite the pain, Ronald remains a pillar of strength for his mother, Esther, his sister, Bea, and a vital ally to the time-traveling Calvin. He is a man caught between the potent spells he commands and the one thing he cannot conjure: a second chance with the young woman he never stopped loving.

As the youngest of the Morehouse siblings, Bea possesses a raw, unrivaled magical power that is second only to the sharpness of her tongue. She’s the fierce protector of her family’s legacy, navigating the segregated tensions of 1958 Moonridge with a defiant spirit and a refusal to back down. After watching her brother’s heart break, she has no room in her life for Agnes Thornton and even less for the secrets the town keeps. Bea is weary of a world that forces her family to hide their brilliance in the shadows and remains deeply suspicious of the strange white man claiming to be from the future.
