Comparing Chupacabra And The Bloodsucking Nature Of The Vampire

The myth of the vampire existed in a multitude of civilizations and cultures under various names such is strigoi (for the Romanian territory), Apotamkin, etc. But no matter the name, vampires will always refer to gothic creatures that drain the blood of humans, thus being monstrous.

To be a vampire, you have to take something from someone else to benefit yourself, whether that be anything from blood to money. Vampires weren’t always what we see today in “Twilight. Vampirism does not always have to do with vampires but selfishness, exploitation, and refusal to respect.

Vampires, however, control their causalities very well which is one of many reasons why they are superior. In fact, vampires have very strong handle of things when it comes to surviving; as long as they maintain a healthy diet vampires have the world at their fingertips. Vampires even possess the gift of seduction and mind control. They can basically tell any human what to do, when to do it, and how they want them to do it. This ability makes humans easy prey and in turn helps vampires maintain a healthy diet.

They are also able to eat human food as long as they have enough blood in their system to keep it running. If they are not careful, they can become gravely ill, and their body will go into a phase called hibernation. How odd that the blood that ran through their own veins, is now their main source of nutrition. The human blood that they feed on helps the undead corpses from drying up, and becoming weak. This is a routine that they have to repeat often to help replenish their body. (L.J. Smith, the CW television series, The Vampire Diaries, 2010).

The vampires in Bloodrayne are seen as villains because they are predators who hunt humans for their blood similar to the nosferatu vampires that were discussed in class who mindlessly attack humans for their blood.

The generalization for vampires has been displayed in films and literature for hundreds of years. The stereotypical versions of vampires are that they have long fangs, sleep in coffins during the day, and suck the blood out of humans. Both novels contradict those stereotypes in different ways. To understand the diversity of the vampires described in both novels, one must examine the characteristics that the vampires display and the meaning and purpose behind them. David D. Gilmore’s book “Monsters” analyzes monsters and other mythical creatures. Gilmore describes why humanity invented the idea of

A true vampire is not one of glitter and sweetness. Rather, a proper vampire is one who seeks out and slaughters their victims in a bloody episode of gore and agony. Such distinction is visible between the two scenes, especially in Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Dracula does not devour his victim by any means. He does his best to respect her physical beauty and maintain her arousal through the process.

The varied and numerous strengths of the traditional vampire serve to aid them in feeding on and attacking humans. The supernatural qualities of the vampire’s abilities only further the distinction of vampires as inhuman. Weaknesses and methods of destroying a vampire are likewise listed:

By definition, vampires are “reanimated corpses that are said to suck the blood of sleeping persons at night” (Webster’s New World Dictionary). In Penny Dreadful, there is a twist. Dracula, the first vampire, is a fallen angel and Lucifer’s brother. While Lucifer fell to Hell and fed on the souls of the dead, Dracula

It is not only required for a vampire to sustain themselves but it is what fuels their sexual desire. As Louis in Rice’s Interview with the Vampire puts it, “for vampires it is the ultimate experience” (Rice, 30). When you think of it, blood is quite a taboo thing. People faint at the sight of it, it’s associated with gross things. We avoid it at all costs and when it does appear we get rid of it straight away. Just as the relationship between a Vampire and a human is taboo.

The Vampire myth may partly have its origins in the feeding practices of some species of this little mammal. These kinds of bat are native to central and south America, and are sanguivorous, which means they feed on blood. They prey on animals and attack during the night, tearing a small part of the skin near a vain and lapping up the blood that flows. Their saliva contains compounds that prevent the blood from clotting, so it will run freely for them to drink their fill. The amount of blood an individual consumes rarely exceeds the capacity of a tablespoon , therefore the animal cannot die because of it. However, owing to the fact that the blood cannot clot the animal may continue haemorrhaging for some time, which weakens it . The real

The belief in vampires goes back through the centuries and Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Romans and even the Greeks had their beliefs. When the sun went down, when the night came, creatures with sharp fangs, white-faced climbed out of their coffins and went looking for blood. In the English language the word vampire has been around since 1734 and in 1897 Bram Stocker wrote his now classic novel “Dracula”. We all know what happened when Hollywood got a hold of the vampire story. There are many vampire movies but the original will always be the classical one and the movie is

A very popular position taken by many skeptics is if vampires are actually real creatures, why haven’t they taken the lives of all human beings? The answer to that is simple. Most humans eat meat, but just because we eat meat with every meal doesn’t necessarily mean it is the same type of animal. What restricts vampires to feeding on just human blood? Could they drink an animal’s blood as well? If they were restricted to humans, the extinction of our race would in turn mean the extinction of theirs.

To start, where do Vampires come from? People have been educated through the media and books that, vampires are creatures that are created when a human being is bitten by another vampire and afterward feeds on blood. The movies specify that one will not fully turn into a vampire unless he or she drinks blood. Most movies even show them as bad for the society. Movies such as blade, Dracula and vampire diary all show how human beings turn into vampires. According to Browning, “Vampires self-described nature begins to manifest around or after puberty” (4). A person who is a vampire does not discover it until he or she reaches adolescence age. Vampires has been known throughout existence and people actually believe that they really do exist. “The term vampire was not popularized until the early 18th
