Anna Paquin stars as Sookie Stackhouse in "True Blood," which wrapped its sixth season Aug. 18 on HBO. JOHN P. JOHNSON


The vampires will go back in their coffins when "True Blood" ends its series run in 2014, according to HBO.

The pay cable network has announced its plan to end the popular vampire series after next summer’s 10-episode seventh season.

"'True Blood' has been nothing short of a defining show for HBO," noted Michael Lombardo, HBO programming chief. "Alan Ball took the books by Charlaine Harris, assembled a brilliant cast led by the magnificent Anna Paquin in the role of Sookie Stackhouse, and crafted a show that has taken its many devoted fans on an unforgettable journey.

"Alan passed the baton to Brian Buckner, who led our fantastic writers and crew in crafting a spectacular sixth season, and he will lead us through the seventh and final season of this amazing show.

"Together with its legions of fans, it will be hard to say goodbye to the residents of Bon Temps, but I look forward to what promises to be a fantastic final chapter of this incredible show."

The series follows waitress and part-faerie Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), who can hear people's thoughts, vampire Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) and vampire Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgård).
