SO... VAMPIRES...DO THEY EXIST?... DO YOU WANA BE ONE?... WHY?... Have You Heard About LESTAT?... Tell Me...:)

Question

DO YOU THINK ETERNAL LIFE CAN BE POSSIBLE?
WHAT ABOUT THE HISTORY VAMPIRES ,WERE THEY REAL?
VAMPIRE FILMS...?

Answer 1

Vampirism exists, vampires do not. I've seen a few documentaries on this subject The legend has it's root in folklore. There is compelling evidence about the apparent immortal nature of Vlad (the real Dracula) for example. His final resting place is still a mystery. His coffin was supposedly raided by his enemies or moved to reside next to some of the individuals he tortured, but no one knows for sure. He defied death several times.
Lestat's great, but he's fictitious. He does not make me want to be one (a vampire), however Pandora,... yeah- maybe. Eternal living in vampiric form and all that entails? He** no. I feel like the living dead half the time now. Another lifetime or eternity of that? I don't think so. It's not the physical part that is tiring at all. It's the mental and emotional fatigue. Have you read or seen any interviews with Anne Rice to see why she's obsessed with the subject? Yeah- it's a result of the death of her daughter (and so we get the character of "Claudia"). Never will be a fair price to pay for all she's achieved and all we have gained from her work. Nope- I'd be like Louis, pre- Queen of the Damned, full of incessant whining.
Nosferatu- excellent!

Answer 2

They are real, but not in the way they are portrayed on TV and in books. Someone else gave the correct answer to this above me.

Why would anyone want to be one, or even to pretend to be? Blood carries so many diseases and there is no such thing as eternal life. Being goth is fine, just do not start drinking blood. Goth is sexy on certain indivdiuals, on others it is trick or treat time.

Answer 3

lestat is the main character of the interview with a vampire and the queen of the damned. yes lestat is a bad *** character but hes made up just like the rest of them.

Answer 4

Yes, vampires exist - but they don't suck blood from humans.
The vampire bat of Mexico got its name because it feeds by sucking blood from cattle.
The cattle don't suffer any harm except when a bat has bitten something that infected it and it passes the infection on to the 'bitee.'
They were named "vampire" bats after the mythical vampires of Transylvania.

Answer 5

you don't look like a goth at all, however in many movies Lestat is mentioned and is different to many of us. I know vampires are real and shoulden't be thought against, they will have their revenge.

Answer 6

Yeah they're real! Frankenstein's monster too! And the Wolfman, the Mummy, and the Creature From The Black Lagoon! Pull your head out!!

Answer 7

Vampires don't exist

Answer 8

Vampires are a very compelling fantasy, and they're seen in many cultures, worldwide. But they are no more real than mermaids, fairies, trolls, demons, etc.

Answer 9

Vampires are fake! Fake like the tooth fairy, fake like the Easter bunny, fake like Santa Claus.

Answer 10

Ok, let me start off by saying that I really admire vampires, & the history, & have been studying up on it....One of the greatest sites there is about vampires is --

http://www.angelfire.com/tn/vampires/index.html

It tells you basically all you need to know & more!!. Awesome site...but anyways...

You are gonna get mixed answers on this question, cause everyone has their own opinions & beliefs....However, I'm gonna give you some Facts, along with my own beliefs & opinions.

There are different types of Vampires. Here's you a list:

*Folkloric/ Historical Vampire*- Specifically an animated corpse that has risen from its grave to drain the blood from animals or humans

*Fictional/ Literary Vampire*- This vampire, unlike the folkloric vampire, has less limitations on it. Again, it may be an animated corpse feeding on blood, but "vampire" in literature is also used to refer to other creatures of the dark who are predators, such as ghouls or incubi, and it often does not feed solely on blood. Fictional vampires may act as psychic vampires, feeding on energy or emotional states, or may feed on other things, such as sex or flesh.

*Living Vampires*- This term refers to those people who are very much alive, but who practice vampiric acts, such as blood drinking, to satisfy an emotional need. Some claim, however, they do need to drink blood to sustain their health. People who choose a vampiric lifestlye often also opt to dress in black clothing or formal attire, sleep in coffins, and advoid the sunlight. "Living vampire" is usually applied only to those who wish to call themselves such- people who have only a blood fetish may take offense at being labeled a vampire. Being a living vampire may be labeled as a "club or weekend hobby," a "lifestyle," "occultism," or a "religion."

*Psychic Vampire*- Specifically a living being that sustains its life, way of life, or own emotional state by draining or feeding from the energy, emotions or life of another being, almost always a human.

*Vampire*- 1. An animated corpse that drinks blood to sustain itself indefinitely. 2. A human, creature, spirit or other entity that drains any manner of thing-- blood, energy, etc.-- from humans or animals to sustain its way of life; psychic vampire.

*Vampiress*- A female vampire. (Though a "vampire" may refer to either sex.)

*Sire*- The vampire who embraces another person; the maker of another vampire; parent vampire. (Female vampires can also be called "sires.")

*Blood Fetish*- The need or want to drink, taste, or "bathe" in blood. Usually conducted in a sexual situation. People who drink blood may or may not call themselves "vampires."

*Blood Lust*- The overwhelming desire to feed. A vampire in blood lust knows no bounds. The vampire will act as if possessed and cannot restrain him or herself until their appetite is sated, even if it means killing where they would not normally. Blood lust is often characterized by a reddening or glowing of the eyes, possible showing or elongation of fangs, drooling, growling, or any other animal-like behavior. Also simply called "the lust."

*Child(e)*- The offspring of a vampire. Pl., Childer.


So you see, in my opinion, folklore vampires aren't real. I don't believe anyone could turn into a bat & fly away, or rise from the dead, etc....HOWEVER, I do believe in Living Vampires, & people with Blood Fetish...Some people believe it all started with Vlad "Dracula"..but if you do your homework & look up the history, it even started before then.....

To answer your questions -- No, I don't believe eternal life is possible. I believe that's only in folklore. About the history of vampires, yes, I believe Living Vampires were/are real even today, so, of course I believe they exist.....They are interesting, but personally, no, I don't believe I would want to be one. I have no interest in blood, or killing.....Yes, I've heard about Lestat, if you want information about him, try going here:
