OMG, we're all vampires!

Vampire gets angry.

Well, some lore claims people need to be virgins to become vampires. And vampire's bite doesn't necessarily kill. One can live a full life after being bitten, and only a future violent death causes the person to become vampire. Even then, by burying the person in question in certain manner, his rise is prevented, and he may rest in peace.

There are so many different kind of vampire lores, from history to contemporary pop-culture, that you really need to take into account, what kind of vampirism it is, that is being refuted.

Then there's porphyria...

what are you doing Saturday night?


then there is

Your fairy is called Bracken Reedfilter
She is a panpipe player and enchantment singer.
She lives where bracken and curling ferns grow.
She is only seen on midsummer's eve.
She dresses in leafy bracken-green. She has gentle green butterfly wings


I was hoping for suspenders and a bra

Vampires are awesome .

many vampire stories have the vampires make sure to kill their prey to prevent them coming back, usually by beheading or general tearing apart (of course it depends on the particular difficulty of creating new vampires). Furthermore typically other vampires will kill careless vampires, since vampires don't need to mate to reproduce and have to compete for food there is really no reason for vampires to not kill other vampires, which would tend to keep the vampire population very low and well behaved.

Doesn't work like that for Zombies because they typically go for the whole zombie collective thing but luckily zombies are stupid so all the smart human survivors need to do is hide until all the zombies die out (the supply of stupid humans to eat can't last forever).

Stupid study, but it highlights popular media's often retarded killing rates. In a show like Buffy, with four or five randoms getting killed every episode plus vampires that were once humans, that gives that one town a murder rate of several hundred a year. Same with many soaps; Hollyoaks in the UK is pretty much a parody of a soap with about a dozen murders a year, but at least the girls are all hot.
