If by "real" you mean, "Able to bite you" then there is no evidence to support that claim...

None, zip, nada... and all of those who claim such things never provide proof. Just check for their sources, there are none referring to documented studies, only personal stories - which are poor evidence - as we can all easily be fooled (just ask any magician).

As for Vampire myths: These began in the middle ages due to a variety of plausible reasons, including:

1) Many people died rather "mysteriously" because they hadn't the medical knowledge to understand, or stop, many causes of death.

2) People's understanding of a body's decomposition was also limited - and a decomposing body can do many strange things:

When a body first begins to decompose it dehydrates; making the skin pull tightly about the body. This, along with "skin slippage" (the flaking of the skin from the body), give the illusion of growing nails and teeth (and further, giving birth to the myth that these body parts grow after death)

Later, a decaying body can fill with gasses (from gut bacteria not released) and the lungs can fill with blood - which is later purged through the mouth due to the expanding gasses (see first link - see? I am showing support for an argument).

3) Then, of course, there are two pretty rare conditions known as catalepsy and porphyria that helped matters along (please see relevant links)

Bram Stoker (among others) took these myths and added his own flair (Vlad III, "The Impaler" was a historic personality).

Most modern vampires base their "condition" from Hollywood movies that based THEIR vampire off of Bram's (who, in turn, based HIS on mistaken farmers and such... do you see the weak chain of reasoning here?)

As for Lycanthropy: These delusions have been attributed to Rye bread contaminated with the fungus ergot (see link), but any hallucination (or imagination) will do in the right setting.

And lastly, I give you the One Million Dollar Challenge: If anyone can prove they have supernatural powers this is your best chance at vindication. If you can't win the money, you must concede that you are not a vampire (werewolf, whatever).

No Money = No Power... no argument

Eve - if god made them and we could see them, then we would also see Dinasours, god made those didn't he? And there is proof to back it up.

Not vampires that actually suck your blood then you turn into a vampire or die. But there are Vampires, that live their life as vampires and drink real blood.

There is also the Highgate Cemetery :
In 1970, Sean Manchester, vampirologist, shocked the world when he announced on television that the Highgate Cemetery, London, was most probably the haunt of a vampire. Sean said that in 1967 two teenage students were walking past the North Gate of the cemetery, when they saw graves opening and bodies rising into the air. He went on to say that a few weeks later a young couple were terrified by a floating apparition behind the same gate.
Since then there have been many more sightings and investigations and, although Manchester finally reported that the vampire has been destroyed, it is commonly agreed that only a fool would enter the cemetery after dusk.

Sorry Alex, yet so a techniques curiously such as you have not gotten any sturdy solutions relatively. just to sparkling a number of this up, Ace: how plenty experience does it make to basically say they don't exist? you have not any information in any respect your answer, merely your opinion. And hypertrichosis has not something to do with this, i can not say it adequate. definite, some idiots mistook those with the illness for werewolves, yet there is not any authentic connection between the two. And, if it is your status argument against the lifestyles of werewolves, then you certainly're heavily screwed. Now, the completed seventh son element (in all its alterations) hasn't been shown and, even though many exchange into werewolves with the aid of inheritance, it does not make plenty experience for a particular baby in a line of babies to recieve it whilst others do not. As for Stormwolf's question, he isn't thinking his very own lifestyles, or the lifestyles of the different werewolf, he merely desires to comprehend what others will say. And final, 2 issues: one, it is Sabine Baring-Gould not Sabine-Gould. 2, werewolf does not necessarilly advise men. definite, it is "guy-wolf", even with the undeniable fact that it is not any diverse than asserting "the race of guy". it is a familiar term meaning the two guy and woman (needless to say, the two have the awareness guy at their names end). it is not menat to signify adult men are dominant over females and it is not meant to signify that basically adult men might properly be werewolves, believe me in this one. She-wolves are between the right issues on earth, yet that beside the factor. Werewolf is a familiar term meant for anybody man or woman that's a factor human, section wolf. Lycanthrope is a greater medical observe.

Nope. The werewolf myth was started because of people suffering from delusions after eating tainted rye.

I think there are. I've heard it said that when the tomb of Vlad the Impaler was finally found there was nothing in the coffin but animal bones. And were-beasts show up in all sorts of mythologies- I don't think it's coincidence. In Europe, were-wolves, in Africa, were-lions... it wouldn't surprise me at all.
