Good question, they just seem to ooze a certain something, it's an air they have about them really. Confidence, poise, glamour, intelligence, wit, sarcasm, perfect grooming. That is how I see it anyway.

Vamp is a colloquial term applied to describe a particular type of femme fatale, popular in silent films. The term is a shortening of the word vampire, and is used to describe a woman who is glamorous in an exotic, stylised and usually overstated manner. She is usually noted for her striking features, dark clothing and hair, and cosmetics which darken and accentuate the eyes and lips. Her character is a heartless seductress, and the men she seduces are usually shown as helpless victims unable to resist her. From the perspective of American film audiences, she is often seen as foreign, usually of undetermined Eastern European or Asian ancestry. She was designed as the sexual counterpoint of the wholesome actresses such as Lillian Gish and Mary Pickford. Among the notable vamps of the silent screen were Theda Bara, Louise Glaum, Musidora, Nita Naldi, Pola Negri, and in her earliest film appearances, Myrna Loy.

There are two types of vampire practises that are used in today's society. One of them is a Sang, which is a person who enjoys the drinking of others blood. The other one is a Psi (or Psy), which is a person that feeds off the spiritual energy of others. You can also be a combination of the two.

Do you mean blood sucking types or the ones that drain you emotionally. These just wear you down by being too demanding for your time, help, emotionally, coming to you for all their problems and expecting you to sort their problems for them
