Fangtasia
From True Blood Wiki
Fangtasia is a popular vampire bar in Shreveport, Louisiana owned by Eric Northman, and in-part by Pam and Chow. It was presumably opened after the Great Revelation and serves as a hangout for vampires and "Fangbangers".
Fangtasia is a big open plan bar with many tables and a few small stages for vampire dancers. Its bar is fully stocked in order to cater to its human clientele. Due to Eric's status among vampires as Sheriff of Area 5, he has a throne-like seat near the back of the bar where humans may offer themselves to him. Fangtasia is a hot bed for humans looking to have sex with vampires; known patrons include Maudette Pickens, Dawn Green, and Neil Jones.

Season 1
It is during a police raid on Fangtasia that Eric became aware of Sookie's ability to read human minds, and he was intrigued. ("Escape from Dragon House") He called her and Bill back to Fangtasia in order to discover who stole $60,000 from his business. When Sookie happened upon a glamoured Ginger, it is clear that the vampire Longshadow, business partner with Eric and Pam, was responsible for stealing the money. Just as he attempted to kill and silence Sookie, Bill staked him through the heart. ("Fourth Man in the Fire") ("Plaisir D'Amour")
The vampire Chow soon replaced Longshadow's position as business partner.
Season 2
After it was discovered he was selling vampire blood, Lafayette was imprisoned for nearly three weeks in Fangtasia's basement. Also imprisoned was Royce Williams under suspicion of starting the fire which killed the vampires Malcolm, Diane, and Liam. When Eric came to question him however, Royce attempted escape with a silver cross in hand. This resulted in an immediate, bloody death by a hungry Eric. ("Nothing but the Blood") Lafayette, using the metal hip in Royce's remains, broke free, only to get shot by Ginger in the main bar area above, and subsequently fed on by Eric, Pam, and Chow. ("Keep This Party Going") Soon after, however, Sookie agrees to help Eric find Godric, one condition being that Lafayette is released. ("Scratches")
