It's hard to believe it's been 15 years since the beginning of what's now known as the "vampire era".

With HBO'sTrue Blood and the first movie from the Twilightsaga hitting our screens in 2008, the obsession with the blood-sucking species reached fever pitch.

And we couldn't get enough!

It didn't hurt that every vampire seemed to have a near-perfect bone structure and chiseled cheese-grater abs (I'm looking at you, Alexander Skarsgård!)

True Blood,in particular, became a cultural phenomenon and made instant stars out of the main cast.

So if you're wondering what happened to your favourites, here's what their lives look like now.

Watch a scene from True Blood. Story continues after post.

True Blood:Anna Paquin (Sookie Stackhouse)

Anna Paquin playedTrue Blood'slead protagonist Sookie Stackhouse, a fearless waitress with a southern drawl at the centre of vampire love triangle many of us will only ever fantasise about.

Ever since the series wrapped up in 2014, the Canadian-born actor has gone on to star in a multitude of television and film projects, such asFlack, The Irishmen,andAlias Grace.

The now 40-year-old welcomed twins - daughter Poppy and son Charlie - with herTrue Bloodco-star Stephen Moyer in 2012.

In an interview with PEOPLE, the pair confirmed their children hadn't watched the hit series that brought them together and they never will if they can help it!

Paquin said she made a deliberate choice to keep the twins, now 11, out of the spotlight as much as possible.

"I don't feel comfortable making that decision for them, because it's permanent," she told the outlet.

Most recently Paquin appeared in filmA Bit of Light,which received glowing reviews.

True Blood:Stephen Moyer (Bill Compton)

Stephen Moyer is equally well-known for his portrayal of Bill Compton, a charming 174-year-old vampire making up one third of the show's steamy love triangle.

In a case of life imitating art, Moyer went on to marry Paquin in 2010 before they welcomed their twins.

Moyer is also a father to children Billy and Lilac from a previous relationship.

The now 53-year-old has continued working on both film and television projects, both in front of and behind the camera.

His most recent project was as director for the film his wife stars in,A Bit of Light.It seems this pair is a force to be reckoned with!

True Blood:Alex Skarsgård (Eric Northman)

Everyone who watched the series knows you had to pick a side, either Team Bill or Team Eric.

It's hard to remember a timeHollywood's golden boy, but surprisinglyTrue Bloodwas actually his breakout role as bad boy Eric Northman.

Since the series ended, he has gone on to star as Tarzan in the live-action remake by the same name, which marked a pivotal moment in the actor's career. He has also had big roles inBig Little Lies, Succession, Zoolanderand most recentlyInfinity Pool, alongside actress Mia Goth.

If you ever swung for Bill, it's probably safe to say you've been won over.

True Blood:Sam Trammell (Sam Merlotte)

Oh, Sam, where to begin?

Since appearing as a shapeshifter and Sookie's trusted confidant on the show, he's been nominated for a Tony Award, has appeared in projects likeHomeland, Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircaseand the horror featureOrgan Trail.

The 52-year-old actor has two children and is married to actor-producer Missy Yager, who is best known for her own major projects likeManchester by the SeaandMad Men.

Most recently, Trammell confirmed he'll be starring alongsideBonesstar Emily Deschanel in the upcoming sci-fi romanceReEntry.

It's safe to say we're keen to see what character Trammell shifts into next.

True Blood:Nelson Ellis (Lafayette)

The character of Lafayette was a short-order cook working at the local restaurant Bellefleur's Bar and Grill that also possessed the power of speaking with the dead and other supernatural beasts.

It was a role that ended up winning actor Nelson Ellis the Actor Satellite Award from the International Press Academy, among other accolades.

In the novels the show is based on, Lafayette was actually killed off quite early on, but because fans fell in love with this character so much, the writers and producers felt that the character needed longevity.

Unfortunately, Ellis' story doesn't have a happy ending though. The actor had
