True Blood season 6 will feature a plot line whereby Bon Temps will be short on Tru Blood, the popular alternate blood drink amongst vampires.
The new True Blood season 6 teaser titled “Bottle Preview” has no video clips but features several audio clips from vampires and humans – including Bill – who are concerned about the lack of Tru Blood’s availability.
“Do you have any idea how many people want to see us all dead?” Bill asks an unknown person.

The show’s producers have said in recent months that the show will be getting back to basics by bringing the storyline’s focus back to Bon Temps.
