FORKS — Fans of the Twilight series of best-selling books wants to save the place where Bella and Edward met — Forks High School.
Twilight Lexicon — one of many groups of fans of Stephenie Meyer’s four-novel series about teen love, vampires and werewolves set in Forks — is asking fellow fans to donate to the preservation of the aging Forks High School on their Web site, www.twilightlexicon.com.
Isabella Swan is the mortal love interest of vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight series.
Since both characters are high school students, the Forks High School figures in several scenes in the books.
Parts of the 1925 building have been condemned for use and are no longer open for classes.
A bond measure to replace the school building is on the Nov. 4 general election ballot.
Lori Joffs and Laura Byrne-Cristiano, owners and administrators of the Web site have teamed up with Infinite Jewelry Co. — which makes Bella’s Bracelet and Bella’s Engagement Ring — and the West Olympic Peninsula Betterment Association to form Twilighters for Forks to ask for donations for the school.
“Just imagine what even $2 from every fan would do,” Twilight Lexicon fans wrote on the site’s news blog.
