Is Eric from True Blood married?

His character on the HBO series is not, in real life Alexander Skarsgard is not married either. In the 9th books of the Sookie Stackhouse series (which is what True Blood is based on) he does get "married" but I won't spoil the "who" part.

What books are True Blood based off of?

There are a few books called True Blood.One was written by Patricia Waddell, another by Shelia Holland. You are would most likely be referring to the one by Charlaine Harris (The one TrueBlood on HBO is based off of) The series isn't accually called True Blood though. It's often referred to as the 'Sookie Stackhouse Novels' or 'The Southern Vampire Mysteries'. The first one is titled 'Dead until Dark' and isn't one book, but at the current time 12 main books with several novella's/mini stories.

What is sookie?

"Sookie" may be derived from one of several etymologies:1. Diminutive of Susan, like Sue or Susie. The origin of Susan is the English form of Susannah, which in turn comes from Hebrew Soshana, a derivative of Shoshannah (often lily, sometimes rose).2. It may be related to the Spanish word "azucar," meaning "sugar."3. It may be related to the West African female day name "Akosua" meaning "female born on Sunday."4. Used in Japanese, it means "to like," or "liked" depending on how it's used. This may seem a little tame, but consider that Japanese has no word that translates straight across to "love." The word that comes closest is ai, which means "affection," so take the "to like" of the Japanese "-suki" and try to look at it through that lens. If "affection" for the Japanese means love, then "to like" or "likable" probably is on the same level as "dear" or "beloved."If the reason for this question is because of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, or the HBO series True Blood which is based upon them, then I think #1 is probably the likeliest reason, although all of them could possibly apply. I rather doubt that a girl born and raised in the U.S. deep south will be walking around with a Spanish, African or Japanese name.

Who produces HBO's True Blood?

True Blood, now in its sixth season, is a show that explores the idea of vampires "coming out of the coffin". The development of synthetic blood, called Tru Blood, has made feeding on humans no longer necessary for the survival of vampires, prompting them to reveal their existence to humans. There are more than just vampires in this world, however. Werewolves, werepanthers, faeries, maenads, godesses, fire demons, and more abound in Bon Temp, Louisiana. The show follows the lives of many different people (and species!) but mostly it is about Sookie Stackhouse, a telepathic waitress caught in a love triangle with two vampires.
