True Blood actor Jim Parrack has revealed he has something in common with his character, Hoyt – he likes to drink blood in real life!
Parrack recently discussed the upcoming True Blood episodes with The Hollywood Reporter, chatting about the recent rekindling of his on-screen relationship with Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll).
While many fans were excited to see the couple get together in the latest episodes, Parrack recently revealed some interesting information about himself, proving he has a lot more in common with his character than you would think.
The Battle: Los Angeles actor sat down with Vulture, where he was asked about a reference he had previously made about drinking blood.
“Oh! Interesting,” Parrack said. “No, that’s not what it was. I was being literal. I like the real deal.”
Why, you may ask? Don’t worry, he has a perfectly plausible explanation, claiming that drinking blood is as normal as drinking alcohol.
“I guess for the same reason some people want alcohol? Or for the same reason some people want, I don’t know … milk? Or Kool-Aid?”
When asked about the frequency of his blood drinking, he admitted he feels an “impulse” when he drinks it but only does it “a couple times a year.”
HBO’s True Blood is currently on it’s seventh season, so make sure you watch out for Parrack on the show – he may be drinking real blood!
