NEW YORK, Jun 24, 2009 / FW/ — Celebrating the second season of the hit show ‘True Blood’ starring Anna Paquin as Sookie Stackhouse, HBO featured the show and “True Blood” themed merchandise on its store window at 1100 6th Ave at 42nd St. in New York City.

Since I have been complaining for two months that the store windows are becoming boring, I am glad to report that the True Blood store window more than live up to expectations.

Using high-tech lighting, the background changes from red to blue; the big screen behind the bar shows clips of the show.

Dress forms are used to show the merchandise, while the bar serves as the ‘billboard’ to inform passersby the beginning of the new season (June 14) and when the show is on (Sunday 9:00 PM).

And just because I know that there are lots of True Blood fans out there, I have also included photos of the new True Blood products on display – the “Merlotte’s” t-shirt, “Fangtasia” tee, “Merlotte’s” apron and “Glamour Me” tee.
