Announcing the Queens of Darkness Series and Election

I am excited to announce the first annual Queens of Darkness series. Working up to the week of Halloween, I will present 9 candidates for the title of Queen of Darkness 2009. On October 26, I will open up voting so that you can elect your own favorite Queen of Darkness. On Halloween, the winner will be announced, and we will have a reigning Queen of Darkness.

How the candidates are chosen: Our potential queens were picked from movies, video games, and the internet. They are bloggers, musicians, protagonists, and supporting characters. They all did something spectacularly dark in the year 2009. Some were chosen for their horrifying good looks and great blackness of character. Others were chosen because they add so much darkness to the world or their community. If you have a favorite dark lady who you think qualifies in all these ways and should be in the list, leave a comment and I’ll consider her for inclusion. Make sure you include some bad reasons why in your comment!
