True Blood creator Alan Ball has revealed that he plans to introduce more gay characters in the show.

In an interview with Advocate, Ball said that season three of the cult series will also mark the arrival of the vampire king of Mississippi.

Ball said: "There are a lot of gay characters in the books as you get further and further into them. We'll be introducing some of those gay characters this new season.

"We'll be meeting the vampire king of Mississippi and his long, long-term companion - and by long-term I mean really long-term - Talbot."

He added: "I think Lafayette may meet a love interest, and certainly Pam, who works with Eric, she's certainly got a lesbian vibe. I don't know that that's all she is, but she certainly does seem to appreciate the women."

Spoiler:

Ball also revealed that fans of the Charlaine Harris novels may not be surprised at the upcoming death on the show.
