I’ve met people I would call vampires. I won’t name names, though I’d like to, as a warning to others — but they know who they are, and so do I.
You’ve met the type. People who are always so very friendly and happy to see you, but only seem to call you when they need something. The ones who always walk away from you with more than they came in with, leaving you with less. You feel tired, exhausted, and they look like they just sprang out of bed after a good night’s sleep.
So what’s up with that? They may not live forever, they may not stay young forever, but they take something. I can’t say for sure what it is. Maybe you can top that. Maybe you’ve met people who drink blood, only come out at night. But do they burst into flame in the sun? Can they survive bullets or stab wounds? What is a “real” vampire anyway?
You tell me. Tell everyone. Let the dialog begin.
Well, I haven’t had any encounters with what I’d consider vampires, but I did once meet a girl who had once thought she was one and drank her own blood. My guess is that it was probably something like Renfield’s syndrome or something, but anyway.
And I do agree that vampires may not live forever, but they have a chance at it if they can avoid the sun or beheading. I mean, the ones we know of from novels that may actually exist.
I was intrigued by your ad. I don’t claim to having ever met a real vampire, but the topic has always been fascinating to me. I’ve met psychics, who claim to “know” things. One guy successfully told me, years ago, what I was thinking of.
I was at a schlock vampire play and went backstage to talk to some guy I recognized from the S&M circuit, and while talking to the guy, he yelled, “Kill him,” referring to me; some chick asked me if she could bite me. I made a hasty retreat from there. The guy was an obnoxious prick. I have not spoken with him since, although I have seen him on the weirdo circuit since.
Speaking to a former priest, I was told by him, “The devil has a great advantage in that nobody believes that he exists.”
I think that there are vampires out there and they do not show themselves. Because other people will call them freaks.
