1.) Do Vampires Really Exist?
Yes, definately. Vampires are real, but not like the ones in movies. No they dont have fangs, no they dont have different coloured eyes and no, they dont move at incredible speed and everything else. Real Blood-Drinking Vampires are called Sanguinarians, and sanguinarians feed on blood.
They get blood donors called Crimson Swans, and the donors get treated very well and get gifts for donating blood. There are also Psychic Vampires that feed on energy, for instance, nature (thunderstorms, plants, animals, weather), positive energy, negative energy, sexual energy whether it is intercourse or sexual thoughts, large crowds.
They also can have a donor, these are called Crystal Swans, and if a donor donated both blood and energy, then they are called Amber Swans! Non-Fiction Vampires are humans but with different needs, the Vampire catagory is only a catagory. They still need food, they still need what we need, some just think it is an energy deficiency.
People get mixed up with the media, they think that Vampires are blood sucking demons who attack people for their blood, well, to be honest, i love fiction Vampires, but Non-Fiction Vampires are very misunderstood, and are everywhere around you, and you don't even no it. Some Vampires dont even know it themselves. Vampirism is just like a Condition.
What frustrates me is that when I say "There are Vampires all around us" they think I believe people are those sexy bad asses with fangs and strength, no. When i say Vampires, i only mean people with conditions which are LOOKED UPON as Vampirism, for instance someone who cannot go out into the sunlight because they are either allergic to the suns UV rays, or any other side reactions, that is a sign of Vampirism because traditional Vampires cannot go out in sunlight. So i'm not saying they ARE A VAMPIRE, I'm saying that have a trait that is looked upon as one.
Another example is someone who has to get energy [or iron] from somewhere (because they lack it) so they get it from iron/energy rich foods, animal blood [from undercooked meats] or get donors to kindly supply them with their blood. This is looked upon as Vampirism because traditional Vampires drink blood, so -again- its LOOKED UPON, not necassarily a Vampire. I hope more people understand what i mean when i say people are Vampires.
2.) Do Vampires Really Drink Blood?
Yes. These Vampires are called Sanguinarians and they do live today.
3.) Do Vampires Really Die If They Are Exposed To The Sun?
No, this is just plain fantasy, even though it sounds cool, it isnt true. Sanguinarians and Psi Vampires might have sensitivity to sunlight and some even say they get rashes and it irritates them but saying sunlight killes a Vampire is going to the extreme. There is a very very rare disease called EPP, where their skin itches and painful and the skin can become red and swollen and the underneath layer can become infected. The skin can also get blisters and scarring.
Also another is Renfield sundrome, this is where you have a compulsion to consume blood, and is more in males than in females.
4.) Are Vampires Really Repelled By Garlic?
No, that is just a myth. Why would a herb repell a Vampire? Total myth.
5.) Do Religious Items Such As Crucifixes Really Ward Off Vampires?
No, some Vampires are quite fond of crucifixes and religious items. Not all Vampires are satanists, and by this i mean anyone can be a satanist, its a HUMAN thing. If a Vampire does worship satan, its not because they are a Vampire, but because they are human.
6.) Can Vampires Really Change Into Other Animals?
No, that is physically impossible.
7.) Are Vampires Really Immortal?
No, Vampires are just like Humans, they need the same things as we do, food, excrement, liquids and so on and so on. Being Immortal is physically immpossible, the skin would get too old, the organs wouldn't be able to last forever and you are bound to get some sort of disease through 'immortal life'. Everything that lives in the world, dies one way or another. There is no way past death, even for a Vampire.
8.) Do Vampires Really Hunt Unsuspecting Victims?
Not non-fictional Vampires no. Fictional, yes. Non-fictional Vampires have 13 rules (Also known as 'The Black Veil') of the community that they have to follow (See The Black Veil page) and one of them is to respect you're DONOR (Also called a Swan, Crystal, Crimson or Amber, depending on which energy you donate) It is illegal to attack people, OR take their blood without their consent (For Sanguinarian Vampires) Psychic Vampires can and sometimes do feed off of people who don't even realise they are doing so. This is because some Psi-Vamps do not know that they are what they are, some cannot control it, and some might not have donors. If a psi-Vampire feeds off a person a little, they wouldn't realise that much, but if they feed a great deal off of one person, they can phsically black out from lack of energy, and that isnt illegal. So it depends on what type of Vampire you are talking about.
9.) Do Vampires Really Sleep In Coffins?
They don't have to if they don't want to. But some Vampires chose to, whilst some of them sleep in an ordinary bed in an ordinary house.
10.) Do Vampires Cast A Reflection In Mirrors?
It is physically impossible not to. Mirrors reflect anything that can have shows, or can be seen, we can see Vampires and sun can cast shadows behind them, so why wouldn't it reflect them? After all they are kind of like Humans with an Energy Deficiency.
11.) Can You Really Kill A Vampire By Driving A Stake Through It's Heart?
Of course you could. From Humans to bunnies, to lions, to Vampires. Staking anything [that breathes] in the heart, of course will kill it. Vampires are just like us!
12.) Are There Any Documented Cases Listing Vampirism As A Medical Disease?
Yes, EPP, which is where you get blisters, rashes, scarring, swelling of the underneath skin and itchy soreness when the skin goes into sunlight or strong light. Also Renfield syndrome where you have the urge to drink blood.
13.) Is It True That One Of The Reasons Vampires Drink Blood Is Because It's Where They Will Get Most Of A Persons Life Force From There Because I Read That They Needed Peoples Life Forces To Help Them Live As Well As The Blood?
Sanguinarians drink peoples blood because there is alot of the persons energy in the blood, yes it is also called life force and the Sanguinarian drinks it because they lack energy, and they need to replace it somehow, thats why 'Blood-Drinking Vampires'- drink blood.
Not all vampires drink blood, there is a type of Vampire called 'Psychic Vampires' where they feed off of peoples life force through energy from auras, and also from emotions, sexual energy, positive/negative energy, natual energy like thunderstorms, raging waters etc, and they can feed off of people by eye contact, hand contact, a simple conversation, by dream, sexual intercourse and others. The only reason Sanguinarians drink blood, is because they also have a blood fetish and they love the taste, sight and feel of blood. Some Vampires are both, Psi and Sanguinarian, they are called 'Hybrids'
14.) How do I turn into a Vampire?
You cannot 'become a Vampire', you only realise with age.
Can Witchcraft make you a Vampire? I tell you now, no materials can make you a 'Vampire' you're only thinking of those on the TV. Its also not white magick so it will get back at you three times as hard, so i wouldnt try if i were you.
Can i hypnotise myself to become a Vampire? Hypnotising yourself will not work either, because its only tricking your mind into thinking you are a Vampire, while a Real Vampire has needs or conditions like lack of energy, or irritable in the sun, even if your mind thinks you have these symptoms, your body does not, so its only a mental change and not a physical. So you cannot sorry.
