Mattel releases vampire Barbie

By Amelia Robinson | Monday, November 2, 2009, 09:43 AM

As expected, vampires like dream houses too.

Mattel has begun selling Barbie Dolls inspired by the “Twilight” movie franchise.

The Barbie-dized versions of vampire Edward Cullen and mortal girl Bella Swan (Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart) sell for about $25 each through Walmart, Walmart.com, Barbie Collector Dealers, Barbie Collector Catalog and www.barbiecollector.com, according to Mattel.

No word on whether or not the Edward doll shimmers in the sunlight or has a thing for human blood.

The next Twilight movie, “New Moon,” will be released Nov. 20.
