Stories about vampires and werewolves often take inspiration from Christianity, but ever since Slug Princess (@slug.princess3) theorized Twilight and its links to Mormons, TikTok couldn’t see the story the same way ever again. Stephanie Meyer, the author of the renowned series, was raised Mormon—so are these all just coincidences, or did Meyer’s upbringing actively shape Twilight?
“This is a sparkly Mormon family,” Slug started her theory, gesturing to a poster of the Cullen family. Vampires from Twilight are known to sparkle underneath the sun—the Cullens are no exception to this rule. Slug further explained that the Cullen family is the representation of the “perfect eternal family” in Mormonism.
