Her moonlight-kissed skin glows in the fog of midnight
as she entrances you into her crepuscular lair.
Her black hair spills over her shoulders,
a waterfall of darkness staining her innocence.
You can't help noticing
her succulent, pale red lips
as her tongue gently glides over
their perfect contour.
Even the cobwebbs weave a spell of lust
over your hazy mind.
Her eyes, red with hunger, lure you onto her
twilight-woven bed.
Mouth watering, you crave her milky figure.
Her dark gown gathers at her feet, enticing you
to taste her...before she tastes you.

Over all I liked this very much! I do have a sort of question for you though. Pale red lips? I get the image of pink instead of red. Is it the color you are after or the image of lifelessness?
Vampires are wicked and some of the best literary characters as far as I'm concerned. You can see her quite well in this write.
She makes death beautiful. -

It's not supposed to be erotic.

This is dark, and this is beautiful, I caught you on the Featured List, and I just wanted to say I enjoyed this.

I can't see how you can use the noun "entrance" as a verb and I feel this acts as a bad intro to the poem; otherwise it's quite creepy and spooky.

Didn't seem erotic enough to me -- but that is because mere descriptions are not good enough. I can only be turned on if there is an element of personality. I need to care for the character before I go ga-ga over her.
