What Is Twilight?

Have you hear of the Twilight Saga, New Moon, Breaking Dawn, or Eclipse, but just don't seem to know what it all means? Or do you stumble over the infinitely growing twilight vocabulary that becomes popular in everyday life? This guide will help the Twilight clueless, confused, and deprived and put you on your way to becoming a twilighter!

Twilght Fans!

Infamous Twilight fans have been known to camp out for days in malls, be named MTV's Women of the Year, and scream whenever Robert Pattinson is even mentioned. If you are unfamiliar with the Twilight community, you may have seen a few names floating around the internet for names that Twilight Fans call themselves.

Twilighter: This is the most popular name for a twilight fan. Urban Dictionary's definition for this term is "A human being who is a fan of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Series, consisting of Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. Twilighters are usually quite addicted to the series, and would be considered obsessed by some." This term is used most often while referring to Twilight fans.

Twi-hard: This term means the same as the last, (just meaning a person who is in love with the Twilight saga). This term was coined from the actor Michael Welch, who plays Bella Swan's friendly companion, Mike Newton.

Twilight Freak: Our personal favorite, the Twilight freak is for the ultimate Twilight fan who is obsessed, and doesn't care who knows it!


Twilight Slang



Possibly the single most important thing about being a twi-hard is all of the constant slang usage that goes around on the internet, and even in everyday life. In order to fit into many twilight related conversations, you must know every one of these term listed below. These twilight terms will be key to understanding the language, and life of a twi-hard!

OME: This is a slang term that is used a TON! This means Oh My Edward. Because many people idolize Edward Cullen, a main character in the books and movies, they are demonstrating their love for him by replacing god or goodness with Edward!

Twitubers: Many people have been wondering just exactly what a twituber is. A Twituber is someone who posts videos on You Tube about their love for the Twilight Saga. These videos can often be in the form of parodies, sing-alongs, puppet representations, or vlogs (video blogs).

Twi-guy: A Twi-guy is an obsessed male twilight saga fan. These fans are often rare in the scheme of things, so people usually are excited to see Stephenie Meyer's beloved book spreading past just teenage girls.

OCD: Even though this already exists, the meaning is changed in the twilight world. This term means Obsessive Cullen Disorder. This is used for anyone who is overly obsessed with Robert Pattinson, or Edward Culllen in general!

Twilight Syndrome: With symptoms like lost sense of reality, hallucinations of Edward Cullen, and belief that vampires are real, this disease can be very dangerous if not cured with a little more twilight!

Vamptastic: This term is regularly used all over the internet, and has even been popping up on tee-shirts! This just means really amazing, or fantastic.

Twilight on DVD!

Twilight's release date is finally known! It will be released on March 21, 2009, and you can pre-order it now on amazon.com! It is a 2 disc special edition with a bunch of bloopers and deleted scenes!

Edwards NEW Haircut!

He’s the object of affection for teenage girls all over the world, and Robert Pattinson has shed his trademark floppy hairdo in favor or a more streamlined look.
The Twilight stud was spotted showing off his short cut at Heathrow International Airoport in London, England.

Vanessa Hudgens as Leah?

That's right, the latest Nw Moon Update is that High School Musical 3 star Vanessa Hudgens has auditioned for the part of the angsty wolf Leah. I don't know if she could be up to it considering her happy Disney performances that she normally does, but her mixture of ethnicities makes her perfect for the look of the part!

Twilight Movie Sales Not Slowing

Even though in the states, the movie feels like it was released ages ago, it still continues to sell tickets like crazy all over the world. Since the November 21st US release, twilight has made $167 million in North America alone, and contiues to rake in the dollars with an additional $70 million overseas. This movie has made about $236 Million in total!
