Karin Pichard's Reel

Centuries after being betrayed and burned at the stake, Gilles de Rais has returned—not as a man, but as a revenant vampire whose blood ignites into deadly blue fire. Once a knight bound by honor, he now wages a silent war against the world that condemned him, orchestrating conflicts from the shadows of modern society. “Bloodshade: The Ancestral Line” is a high-concept dark fantasy series where original vampires—born, not made—manipulate global events to prevent (or trigger) humanity’s extinction. Gilles is one of the four Originals… and his fire is only the beginning.

Bloodshade: The Ancestral Line is a dark fantasy saga that reimagines vampire mythology through ancient bloodlines, occult science, and a collapsing world order. Designed as a franchise-ready IP, it blends gothic horror, emotional depth, and cinematic worldbuilding to deliver a mythology where immortals, revenants, and humans must forge an impossible alliance—or face extinction. Backed by a YouTube community of 15K+, this project has a growing audience and a universe ready to expand across formats.
