The year is 2008, two years after vampires revealed their existence to humanity following the invention of synthetic blood called Tru Blood. In the humid backroads of Louisiana, humans and vampires now uneasily share the same world. Bon Temps appears to be an ordinary small Southern town, but beneath its familiar diners, churches and swamps lies a hidden supernatural society of vampires, shapeshifters and other creatures most humans don't yet know exist.

Vampire rights have become a national controversy. Some humans embrace vampires, others fear or hate them, while organizations like the Fellowship of the Sun openly oppose them. Vampires themselves maintain an ancient hierarchy of sheriffs, monarchs and territories hidden behind their new public image.

At the center of Bon Temps is Merlotte's Bar and Grill, where telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse meets vampire Bill Compton. Their relationship draws Sookie and those around her deeper into a dangerous supernatural world of vampire politics, murder, prejudice, desire and secrets. This setting begins around Season One, allowing canon events to develop differently depending on the player's actions.
