Electronic Arts promises us Sim 3 vampires, doesn't deliver, makes us sad photo

So Electronic Arts recently held a Sims 3 "Creator Camp" at their EA Redwood Shores campus, giving players the opportunity to design their own content using the game's deep custom content creator. 

EA then decided to send us a press release today titled, "Palaces, Vampire Sims, Movies and More Created at first ever THE SIMS 3 content creator camp." The problem? Of all the screens they sent us, there isn't a single vampire represented among them.

Palaces? Yes. A witch? You betcha. But a blood-sucking creature of the night? Nowhere to be seen. 

I'm a warm-blooded American male who's not afraid to say that I'm really looking forward to The Sims 3. But this vampire-teasing is not the way to my heart, EA. Please don't pull this kind of stunt again.

Those graphics mean that my PC almost certainly won't be able to run it.

Oh well, I'm still not done with the Sims 2 anyway.

That woman in the blue shirt on the sixth pic looks like a vampire to me.

Oh, it'll be in an expansion/stuff pack, no surprise.

Money's on some sort of Halloween-themed one with costume vampires and not the "Have at you!" kind. =\
