Bullet For My Valentine celebrate 20th anniversary of “The Poison” with new graphic novel.

In the streets of Bridgend, a mysterious vampire stalks the night from the shadows. Drawn to the mundane yet comforting routines of the suburban life, he becomes fixated on a particular human girl, Valentine, who has unknowingly become the object of his fascination.

Each night, Vincent watches from the shadows as she leaves her workplace and makes her way home. Her laughter, her grace, and the gentle rhythm of her footsteps created a melody that echoed through the otherwise silent streets. Despite the darkness that consumed him, Vincent felt a strange warmth in his undead heart whenever he observed her.

One fateful night, their paths crossed in a way neither of them anticipated. As Emily walked through a dimly lit alley, Vincent stepped out from the shadows, revealing himself. Startled but intrigued, Emily gazed into Vincent’s piercing eyes, and an inexplicable connection ignited between them. They spoke, shared stories, and for a brief moment, the boundary between the supernatural and the human world seemed to blur.

However, the weight of Vincent’s immortal secret pressed heavily on him. Fearful of the consequences, he decided to distance himself from Emily, retreating back into the shadows to resume his silent surveillance. Vincent’s love for Valentine grew silently, hidden in the depths of the night.

As weeks passed, Valentine’s life took a turn. She met a charming man, and their connection deepened. Vincent’s jealousy simmered beneath the surface as he continued to watch the blossoming romance from afar. The pain of unrequited love twisted his undead heart, fueling a darkness that threatened to consume him. He followed them one night to the new lover’s apartment and continued to watch at a distance.

After witnessing them make love, he then sees shortly after Valentine begin to cry and swing her arms around while her lover remains obscured by the curtains, Vincent heads up to Room 409 to get a hold of the situation and help her out. As he enters the room, he attacks her lover. She screams for him to stop but it’s too late. Vincent overpowers her man and tosses him through the window in a fit of rage.

Valentine immediately, tears running down her face grabs a knife and begins to attack him. The realization hits that she has no idea whom he is and Vincent has let this go too far. No returning back now. Vincent knocks the knife out of her hand and sinks his teeth into her neck. She falls to the ground in a similar fashion to the cover of The Poison. The blood on the album cover coming from her neck and her left hand exposes a new ring. Her lover had just proposed to her and Vincent misunderstood everything. He retreats to the shadows.
