For it to be so normal to watch a fantasy show and see all kinds of people that look completely different," Daniela Nieves told TODAY.Sept. 15, 2022, 8:38 PM UTCThat’s the best advice Daniela Nieves and Sisi Stringer can give TODAY for avoiding Strigoi, the red-eyed vampires whose monstrous bloodlust threatens their characters’ worlds in “The Vampire Academy,” the first four episodes of which release on Sept. 15 on Peacock.
