Considering the loony, zany personality of Debbie Pelt, it's hard not to imagine what the two people who spawned the late ex-girlfriend of Alcide on True Blood are like.

Well... fans won't need to imagine on season five. We'll be meeting Debbie's parents.

HBO has sent out casting notices for Barbara and Gordon Pelt, both of whom are in their 50s and both of whom will first appear on episode three this summer.

Barbara is described as "kindly" and "well-dressed," while her husband is the same... but he'll also grow angry with Alcide when he speaks ill of their daughter, who they believe is simply missing.

In other, major True Blood casting news, Christopher Meloni has been confirmed as a season five regular. No word yet on when new episodes will premiere.
