What Happened To The Child Vampire Daniel On Forever Knight?

Forever Knight DanielForever Knight was a television series from the early 1990’s  in which an 800 year old vampire cop named Nick Knight looks to repay society for his past sins which were courtesy of his rampant blood lust.  In the Season 1 Episode 13 episode titled Father Figure Nick has a flashback to air bombed WW II London, England.  A homeless boy with a cockney accent named Daniel steals Janette’s purse but Nick catches him.  He, and Janette take a parental interest in him, and bring them into their vampire trio which includes their master LaCroix.  LaCroix doesn’t seem much interested, and perhaps is even a bit jealous at the attention the child is getting.  However he knows Janette wants him, and tells Nick of his intent to transform the boy into a vampire as an “experiment”.  Nick compels the boy to run away but somehow LaCroix gets a hold of him later on, and brings him across into the eternal darkness much to Nicks chagrin.

This has to be the most unresolved flashback of the entire Forever Knight series since the last we see is the vision of Daniel as depicted in the photo to the above left.  So what happened to this vampire child? Clearly he either left to go off on his own, or died since Daniel is never seen, or mentioned, in any form on the show except this one episode.  This kid clearly looks like trouble.  Especially his smart ass demeanor after the transformation to vampire.  It would also be conceivable that a kid wouldn’t have much self-control over the urges of blood lust, and murder.  I’m sure Nick, and Janette tried to continue playing house with the kid but he obviously wasn’t a sweet little boy anymore.  He strikes me as being deeply influenced by the diabolical LaCroix who had a knack of being a smart ass who enjoying playing minds game with Nick due to his quest to become human again.  I’m sure at some point Nick, and even Janette got tired of the little brat.  He may have even posed a danger of exposing the trio with rash behavior of brazenly attacking people, and draining them of blood. Based on Nick conveying feelings of regret, and remorse I suspect he had to kill the kid to save some lives.  Perhaps he went on a serial killing spree, and Nick had enough of this little LaCroix wannabe.  At least LaCroix had some restraint but this little punk was probably a nut case like LaCroix’s master.  A girl named Divia in her early teens who seemed to have little restraint including the killing of her own master, despicable carnal desires, and the eventual slaying of several vampires in LaCroix’s life thousands of years later.  I’m sure only Nick had remorse over Daniel’s death while LaCroix, and Janette were happy to be rid of the little bastard.

Unstable vampire kids don’t only exist on television but in this Universe as well. Children transformed into vampires have their sweet nature, and innocence warped into uncontrollable evil.  Thankfully they have to be at least approaching their teens to be brought across as the innocent blood of children is poisonous to vampires.  In fact babies blood will kill a vampire.  This is natures way of protecting the innocent from the scourge of paranormal evil.

On a final note the world of Forever Knight exists in another parallel Universe as most television shows do.  Just about every story is real in some Universe.  You can watch the episode we discussed by typing “Forever Knight Father Figure” into Youtube.  We’d embed or link to it but whenever we do that for a video it mysteriously gets deleted.  If you have a different opinion on what you think happened to Daniel the kiddie vampire then reply to this post with your guess.

Update:  What a shock!  Just mentioning a video on Youtube without giving out the address even gets it deleted the next day!  Wow!  Just Wow!  Sorry Forever Knight fans, and the guy who wasted his time uploading all those episodes!  I guess every time we dare point anyone in the direction of a video it gets deleted by the greedy powers that be who apparently avidly monitor our website!  I wonder if they’d delete it from Amazon.  Let’s test it.  You can watch the episode of Forever Knight for $1.99 by clicking here. Okay greedy powers that be you make your little profit now.  That good for you babies?  We get a little cut as well.  Does that make you cry?  You gonna delete it? LOL! 🙂  This is so sad!
