During its seven-season run, HBO’s horror series True Blood treated fans to a love triangle between half-fairy Sookie Stackhouse and the vampires Bill Compton and Eric Northman, with werewolf Alcide Herveaux thrown in for good measure. Yet Sookie didn’t end up with Bill, Eric, Alcide or any other supernatural being. Instead, in a conclusion that left fans disgruntled, it was revealed she married a nameless, faceless everyman. This gave her the normal life Bill imagined for her, but after years of supernatural romantic drama, it felt like a letdown.While other vampire stories like Twilight and The Vampire Diaries angered a portion of their fans by having their leading ladies choose one supernatural suitor over another, True Blood avoided that fate — and instead underwhelmed all its fans equally. Fan disappointment over Sookie’s faceless and unidentified husband was also indicative of a deeper issue: It was a choice dictated by Bill, not Sookie. In the series’ seventh season, Bill was infected with Hepatitis V — a disease fatal to vampires — and instead of taking the cure Eric offered him, chose to die. His reasoning had everything to do with Sookie. Bill and Sookie were powerfully drawn to one another from the beginning of True Blood. At one point, Bill even planned to propose. But he came to believe in Season 7 that Sookie needed to move on from him so she could live a normal life and have kids. Despite her stated desire for him to take the Hepatitis V cure and live, he believed she’d just keep coming back to him and never live the life he dreamed for her.
