<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><b>Welcome to Bon Temps, Louisiana! </b>Bon Temps is depicted as the typical Southeastern small rural town, with most of its residents being conservative, working-class American citizens.  According to the town's welcome sign, Bon Temps is the self proclaimed "Catfish Capitol of the South", and its "current" population is 2,524.</span><br/>
<br/>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><b>County/Parish: </b>Renard || <b>Season:</b> Mid-summer || <b>Weather:</b> Hot, Humid</span>​</div><br/>
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">The year is 2022, following The Emergence of vampires in the year of 2017. It has been five years since the species outed themselves and like most small rural towns, the citizens of Bon Temps are God-fearing people who resent the existence of vampires altogether. They believe the creatures to be abominations - an insult to God's creations - and are weary of their kind. Despite this, vampires can find Vitale (synthetic blood) sold in nearly every small town location, including Merlotte's Bar &amp; Grill. The substance is served warm at body temperature and comes in any blood type known to human kind. </span><br/>
