Oh Jack Chick! Know him? He's an artist/writer of those religious tracts that the crazy woman who sees you at the bus stop hands you while you're waiting for the number six, or substituted as Kleenex inside a peep show booth. Anyways this is from his newest masterpiece entitled "First Bite" - which from what I can tell from reading is a typical "Halloween is a Satanist holiday and an affront to the lord" story. But three things stand out to me:
1. The fact that the "vampires giving birth" seems eerily familiar; as if Mister Chick (If that even is his real name.) glossed over the whole Darla giving birth to Connor story arc from Angel.
2. The fact said vampiric offspring has the oh-so-scary name of Igor. Igor?! C'mon! I could come up with scarier names, like Rumpleshithead or Chilly McFreeze!
3. Igor looks like the love child of film noire icon Peter Lorre and MAD Magazine mascot Alfred E. Neuman!
Anyways, the link to the rest of the story is above and if you're ever in the mood for some shiggles, you can read Jack Chick's entire catalog here.
FWIW, "Boo!" is the best of the anti-Halloween ones...
