Forget Twilight. Forget The Vampire Diaries. Just when you thought the undead genre had been staked through the heart, ShowX sinks its teeth into a fresh corpse with Love Sucks , the 2023 Original series that is redefining "toxic relationships" for Gen Z.

Premiering exclusively on ShowX this fall, Love Sucks is a darkly comedic, bloody, and heartbreakingly real look at senior year—where the only thing more terrifying than the SATs is falling for a 200-year-old creature of the night. The series follows Luna Flores (played by rising star Alisha Ray), a cynical punk-rock outcast and true-crime podcaster at Darkwood High. While trying to expose a local cult, she accidentally interrupts a ritual and ends up bound to Silas Vane ( newcomer Kai Ashworth), a devastatingly handsome vampire who has spent two centuries trying to break a curse that prevents him from feeling human emotion.

The twist? The curse isn’t broken by love. It’s broken by embarrassment .
