Twilight is just as famous for its devoted fanbase as it is for its movies and books, and no better is this devotion illustrated than by observing an unusual trend that surfaced when the film series was at the height of its popularity.

Obsessed with the movie series - and inspired by Robert Pattinson's look as Edward Cullen - several fans took a leaf out of the actor's book and decided to get some fangs of their own.

In one case, Twilight superfan Taylor Wilkins had a tooth-coloured resin applied to his canines, which was then moulded into pointy fangs. This was after visiting a dentist and paying around $200 for the procedure (which translates to £152 today).

A devout supporter of R-Patz and Team Edward, Wilkins just wanted to look like his idol. Fortunately, these fangs could easily be removed and didn't damage the original teeth. Must be useful for tearing up steak dinners, too.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
