Central to vampire myth, however, is the consumption of human blood or other essence (such as bodily fluids or psychic energy), followed closely by the possession of sharp teeth or fangs with which to facilitate this task. In most depictions, vampires are “undead”—that is to say, having been somehow revived after death—and many are said to rise nightly from their graves or

Flashes hit the eyes harder. The vampire looks, he sees an unfamiliar place. High arches, symbols on the floor, the hunter looks at his hands, they are shrouded in greenish smoke, the skin is wet. He looks ahead of him, in front of him stands a figure in a black hood, completely covering his head and face. The picture begins to blur, as if you are on the verge of sleep and still fighting the battle to stay awake. The vampire strains his will, too little blood, the memories have to be pulled out. The vision became clear again for a second. The vampire took advantage of the moment and carefully studied what room the hunter was in at his birth.

22 Alluring, much like werewolves. However, the distinction lies in the fact that their radiance seems ethereal and more fitting for the night. The vampires I had envisioned in my mind were anything but normal-looking humans. I had pictured them as beastly and corpse-like, all skin and bones. Unfortunately, my earlier assumptions were proven wrong, as the vampires I encountered today were mesmerizing, capable of making you believe they weren't as sinister as you had once thought, or even fool you into underestimating them.

As she delved into the ethereal realm, visions began to materialize in her mind—a decrepit castle, its towering spires reaching into the night sky, shrouded in darkness and situated deep within the vampire-infested territory. She was being pulled towards this place by an unseen force, but when she tried to go any further, she suddenly disappeared, and a wave of darkness overwhelmed her. However, the visions continued to come and go for several minutes before fading away. Finally, as the last traces of light faded away, the vision ended just as abruptly as it had appeared.

Truly they are being disrespected, underrated and misunderstood. Vampires are not violent creature. Perhaps they are when they are unable to find their true mate to make them sane but they aren’t evil. Maybe drinking blood makes others think they are but what can they do? This was how they were created. In their Gods image. Proud they are and proud they will be. Dante enters the room quietly with both of his hand dug into both of his pants. “Is the room to your liking?” Eve didn’t turn around but she spoke to him.

Eleanor's P.O.V I smiled as I held the newspaper in my hand and looked at the large title written in bold on the front page. 'YET ANOTHER KNIFE VICTIM' It was connected to a person's lifeless body. No, it wasn't a person. It was a vampire. A fucking bloodthirsty monster. He laid there lifeless on the floor with a body so unrecognisable that it would make people shudder at the murderer's viciousness. I'm curious who could be so ruthless.

Vampires. Hundreds of them. Karin stepped forward slowly, his face tightening as he studied the nearest wall. “What the hell is this place…” he whispered. I moved closer. The first carving showed wolves standing beside witches beneath a crescent moon. The next showed vampires kneeling before something buried beneath the earth. Then war. Bodies. Fire. Blood. The deeper the carvings went, the uglier the story became. “They fought together once,” Zero muttered behind me. “No,” I said quietly.

He looked here and there and saw a huge house in front of him. The house seems elegant and classy but Ethan somehow could sense something off about the house. He glued his gaze on the house and in no time a red light emitted from his eyes which showed him some glimpse. Instead of the house, he could see a magnificent castle in the same place and a king with fangs and bat wings. He also saw a glimpse of a lady who is bounded by rope and another woman attacking this woman. Ethan became terrified seeing all this. At the same moment, he started hearing voices for help and the woman crying and another woman laughing. These voices became louder and louder and in no time Ethan fainted.

Flipping to the first page she skimmed the text. 'Vampiric entities exist in cultures across the world. Hysteria follows the legends of these phantoms, causing mass burnings and hangings of suspected vampires. Every culture has its own lore regarding vampires. These malevolent spirits would contaminate the living by biting them and drinking their life force to sustain their own.' This gave Layla pause as she remembered Atreus' elongated canines. She chewed her lip softly as she read on.
