Vampire, in folklore, a corpse that rises from the grave during the night, often in the form of a bat, and, for nourishment, sucks the blood of sleeping humans. Various talismans and herbs supposedly avert vampires, but, according to tradition, they can be destroyed only by cremation or by stakes driven through their hearts. Belief in vampires originated in ancient times and was especially widespread among the Slavs. The novel Dracula (1897) by the British writer Bram Stoker tells the story of the Transylvanian vampire Count Dracula, who became one of the most popular subjects of horror films.
PERSONALLY, I THINK IT'S JUST JACK NICHOLSON.

There are no vampires. There are some people who want to think they're vampires and drink blood and wear black and think it's all cool and romantic and dramatic, but no vampires. The dead do not come back from the grave. Their dead, ok? Join us in the 21st century. Hell, join us in the 20th century for that matter.

Most modern vampiric groups are actually discouraged from drinking blood, but some do.

yes, the truly do. I live in this one part of the world that is very famous for vampires. I have seen them outside my barred windows at night sucking blood from the townspeople. Sometimes they scrape to get into my windows, but I just point and laugh and say things like, ewwww, my blood is just so sweet and tasty Vampire! HAHAHA!

Vampires drink blood, they drink all sorts of blood. Still, you wouldn't believe the joy one can get from disemboweling them. Their organs and their blood spill all over the place. Nothing can compare though, to cutting them up little by little.
I believe I've gone ahead of myself. I am a hunter of supernaturals. My price is $20,000 US dollars, this price is not up for negotiation. Should you need my help, you can contact me though this by e-mail.
