Real life vampires, okay, well there first are the ancients, we will ignore this one, then they hollywood steriotype and mythological beings, ignoring this as well, and then in today's day and age we have three versions of the vampire. one) the human-living vampire, two) the gothic vampyric role player, and three) the biological vampire.
What do they do?
They live their lives, they shop, they eat, they work, they commute, the adapt. So are teachers, some are accounts, some run churches, and some work the grave yard shift. (no pun intended)
How do they live?
They strive to live by joining in communities to make strong ties to others like themselves. they find donors. (Donor: a person who shares a bond of trust or a lover who offers their blood and/or energy to the vampire) Vampires are very cautious, there are many virues to be worried about, especially STDs and AID/HIV, not to mention colds and herpes. But dangers aside. Blood is a purgativ, so do not consume more than a few ounces of shots of blood in one setting. The drinkin gof blood is not required, a person can also drink the energy through psychic energy syphening. Remember: it is not the act of blood drinking that replenishes, it is the consumption of the pranic energy within the blood, the life fore, if you will that keep the vampire healthy.
They can be found in almost any city, especially new york, california, new orleans, atlanta, and england. though surprisingly enough they really are everywhere, you just have to look. (believe it or not i have many clubs and meetings/org. in my town in Kansas) keep your eyes ppeled, just beware, the BDSM vamps can get a little messy/kinky/insane.

There are real people who drink blood, and there are also people who have medical conditions and must avoid sunlight. Basically a real life vampire has characteristics of a vampire, without the immortality, mystic powers, etc. And they live just like normal people.

There are people into vampirism who act like they are vampires. The real vampires you should worry about are energy vampires.

Beware of the Psychic Vampires: People Who Take Energy From Others
The name psychic vampires immediately reveal our attitude toward people who take energy. Not as obvious, it also reveals our attitudes toward the people from whom they take. A vampire is a taker who drains its victims.
To help and heal ourselves and each other, we must first recognize the person who is taking energy from another person can only do so if the person they are taking from agrees to it on some level. Freedom comes when we stop projecting our fear of powerlessness onto others, blaming them and victimizing ourselves.
Permission to give or take does not need to be granted on a conscious individualized basis. It comes from an underlying attitude about giving and taking.
Our experiences in life all include give and take in varying degrees and mirror back to us where we are on the spectrum selfishness and selflessness. Selfishness and self-centeredness are generally viewed as undesirable traits. Selflessness is usually viewed positively. Both require balancing.
Those who give selflessly without balance can become doormats or martyrs or may "kill with kindness". They may find it difficult to say "No." Those who take without thought are often very kind people who have learned inappropriate ways to get energy. They may also be obviously selfish and thoughtless of others. These are examples of opposite ends of the spectrum. Most of us sit somewhere closer to the middle and as with all living things our abilities and balance fluctuate.
The giver's attitude of willingness creates an opening that enables a taker to connect to the giver. Connecting to each other, although generally unseen, literally creates a physical connection that we just do not see with the naked eye. The Hunas have spoken about these connecting "cords" for centuries. More recently Phyllis Krystal, a therapist from California, has developed a technique called Cutting the Ties That Bind, a method of working with or cutting serious ties that prevent us from being us.
Those we mistakenly call vampires are not necessarily bad people. For instance a friend once connected to me very deeply while we were working on an intense project together. Eventually the energy being drained from me made me ill physically. I was extremely weak, dizzy and having heart palpitations. My friend was driving me to the various doctor's appointments and helping in any way she could. Neither of us knew she had connected to me in this fashion. It took a mutual friend, an intuitive, to tell me what was happening. In meditation I prayed for guidance and saw the cords between us. I envisioned myself pulling some of them out one by one. I envisioned cutting other cords with scissors. My health improved in three days. My friend and I spent a day together talking about the experience and forgiving each other. She was horrified at what we had learned. She loves me and would not hurt me for the world.
Love & Blessings

Real life vampires are everywhere. They may not suck blood or bodily fluids(lol), but they can suck out the fun/joy/interest/whatever out of your life. With this description, 90% of parents are vampires.

My interpretation of a vampire is a goth. They may not suck out your blood, but looking at them scares the crap out of you sometimes and it sucks away your joy. I also interpret bats to be vampires because they suck blood (the blood sucking ones at least).

People that have their canine teeth sanded into points and drink blood, sometimes their partner's, if they agree to it.

This website tells you: http://www.sanguinarius.org/
They're people who think they need to drink human blood, basically. They often have donors who will give them blood.
