Supernatural Arizona -- Up on the Sun Soundtracks Our Own Twilight/True Blood/Vampire Diaries-style Show

The last Twilight movie will be released soon and only one episode remains in the fourth season of True Blood. But don't think the vampire craze is on the decline -- MTV recently launched Death Valley, which looks like a campy cross between Reno 911! and Zombieland. How much longer...

The last Twilight movie will be released soon and only one episode remains in the fourth season of True Blood. But don't think the vampire craze is on the decline -- MTV recently launched Death Valley, which looks like a campy cross between Reno 911! and Zombieland.

How much longer can this dead horse can be beaten? The time to launch a vampy supernatural soap is now, so allow me to introduce my very own supernatural show set in the Valley of the Sun.

The plot:

There have been reports strange things going down in the Phoenix metro area at night. Sheriff Joe thinks it's all nonsense, but assigns our heroine, Emma Stone -- a no nonsense rookie with something to prove -- to investigate.

Over the course of her adventures, Stone will witness the scariest AZ has to offer, encountering feral javelinas, vampires, chupacabras and one gubernatorial mummy.

And of course -- Alice Cooper will show up (as a golfing creature of the night).

No television series is complete without a soundtrack. Luckily, we've got that covered:
