Everyone knows hanging around a vampire will likely end up in [literally] getting the life sucked out of you.

Why then do we let so many vampires hang around our homes without even a shred of garlic, a piece of silver, or the ever-handy UV light to vanquish them with?

Fear not my friends, for today is National Vampire Awareness Day, as deemed by big box store Best Buy.

Wait, Best Buy??

That's right, because we're not talking about REAL vampires (geez you're gullible), we're talking about electronics that draw vampire load, or sometimes called phantom load.

...and Best Buy wants you to know how to exorcise those phantoms and send the undead back to the ranks of the fully dead for good.
