Vampyre Legends Trends and Fads

For many years trends and fads come and go. The legend of the Vampyre’s however have out-staged any fad. From Buffy to Angel, Twilight to True Blood, Vampire Diaries etc.

It’s fascinating to have the ability to live forever, to intoxicate the human mind and seduce them into a climatic frenzy while the Vampyre feasts on their blood.

In movies, books and TV series, vampires are attractive and have stamina, they are passionate and fatally romantic. What is it about this legend that makes so many people out there want to believe in its existence?

I am an artist I write and I live out my life behind a lens. In the past few weeks I have lost everything you can think of. I am young but feel as though I have lived 1000 years. I, just as much as you all, wish I had superhuman strength and the ability to live forever and discover a fountain of youth that will make it so that I will never age, that I will keep my beauty forever more.

The reality is, this simply does not happen from the day we are born we already begin the process of dying.

My advice; create your own story, fantasy, live out your dreams live each day as if it were your last and… try to picture what mark you would like to make in this world, how you would like to be remembered and focus on taking the steps necessary to achieve those goals.

I suppose its not until you lose everything that you sit here at 6 pm on a Sunday evening and realize you have nothing.

Search for this legendary Vampyre all you want, you will find nothing because they simply do not exist.

Questions About Vampires

The thoughts and questions raised here should make for a very interesting discussion:

Recently it has been brought to my attention that mythical creatures might just be real, as I do not believe in the folklore, and would really like the truth, please would you answer some of my questions.

1. Modern Vampires, as you call them, are they like the real vampires, whose soul is promised to the devil?

2. How would one know that they are who they say they are, any traits that might be shown to identify them?

3. Are they capable to love, just another ordinary human, without placing them in danger?

4. You talk about government agencies that are aware of this, if they are not dangerous then why are they hidden.

5. Are Vampires also scared and hide from light?

6. Can Vampires read minds (as told in many stories)?

7. What supernatural powers do Vampires have?

8. Is it dangerous to be romantically involved with them, not just for the human but for the Vampire itself?

9. If Vampires do not use blood for feeding (like the Psychic Vampires) what do they feed on? (I understand energy for another, but explain, how they do that)

10. Is this really true or has the entertainment industry introduced something in life and now everyone is following (Interview with a Vampire, The Twilight saga… etc.). Is this really true or just a bunch of people so bored with life that they have now decided it is true? Please excuse my attack, I am just really not so convinced, and if you have friends telling you this is what they really are, the need to learn and question arises even more.

11. If one is not called and transformed to a Vampire, because that is what happens when you get bitten by one, and you were not born to be a vampire (which I also do not understand) then how does it happen? Please its one thing I need to have answered (as my friend, not explaining much, just told me it happened about six years ago, he never said how it happened just that “it” did).

I am fully aware of the Greek myth of Lamia and the Biblical story of Lilith, all associated with the serpent and Hades or the Devil… I am questioning the modern vampire stories, that they walk amongst us as human.

Your help would mean the world to me. Many thanks.
