Are there vampires in the real world? In other worlds, Are vampires real?

10 April 2010 1 views 13 Comments

I am reading Twilight and I wanted to know if vampires are real. I have researched and there are no reliable physical evidence of vampires. Though humans cannot live on blood alone like vampires, gene malfunction or mutation can cause vampire like qualities. Please help me with my confusion.

    Vampires do not exist in the real world. The myth of the Vampires was created by humans who saw a Vampire Bat (a small species of bat) sucking the blood out of livestock, and, very rarely, human beings.

    The stories escalated from there, because humans are easily excitable creatures.

    Also, the Twilight series sucks, literally. Go find a Harry Potter book instead.

    No, I’m pretty sure vampires are non-existent in all “worlds.”

    Yes, but not like stoker’s. You can not turn into a bat, to kill one you don’t have to stab they heart. However people do drink blood for sexy reasons, religion reasons, and many more. Some say “vampires” use to be cannibals that have learned to just drink blood and not eat flesh. People do have skin disorders that can’t make you feel like you are getting burned. So if you mix skin disorders and blooding you get a “vampires” .

    Vampires are not real.
    Maybe in the future, they can figure out how to mutate humans into becomeing vampires….

    In other worlds…. yes. But it’s not what you think it is.

    don’t listen to the people who say no, cuase they are real but way over rated! there are pisi-vampires- they feed little on blood but more on energy- like oras,your feelings that kind of energy they also have very outstanding abilities but those abilities don’t apply to everyone just very very few.but i don’t remeber the other kind or what they do ,but vampires age just like regular people and they do NOT have fangs.and you have to be born a vampire.

    Here is truth – read and understand.
    1. Vampires, defined as a humanoid being that MUST consume blood or energy to survive do not exist. Cut and paste time, as it is too much work to type this out over and over and I “recycle” my own answers instead of retyping them so here goes. A brief discussion of the human digestive system and then the probable vampire population given an exponential growth rate should explain why vampires are not possible.

    2. The human body is not designed to process large amounts of blood for nutrition. There is not enough protein, carbohydrates, and fats present in blood to maintain a complex creature such as Homo Sapiens or any theorized offshoot mutations. When a human ingests food it is first broken up into a bolus by chewing, then churned up in the stomach with digestive juices to form a mass called chyme. It then passes through the pylorus into the duodenum, part of the small intestine where it mixes with bile salts and secretions from the pancreas and liver which continue breaking it down on a molecular basis, mostly affecting fats at this point. The broken down nutrients pass through the wall of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they are carried to each cell or stored for later use. Indigestible bulk continues through the intestines, turning a dark brown from the bile. Water is absorbed from this mass in the large intestine depending on the needs of the body – a well-hydrated person will usually have a softer stool than a dehydrated person will. Water also enters the bloodstream, and this is what helps to maintain blood pressure. The pressure tends to balance itself in a healthy person because the bloodstream goes through a formation in the kidney called the Loop of Henle, where the narrowing blood vessel forces excess water and cellular waste such as urea out through the cellular wall into the kidneys, where it is excreted through the ureters into the bladder, and then out of the body via the urethral passageway.

    3. IMPORTANT – A person physically unable to process his own food for nutrition therefore also could not process blood – it’s the same process. Ingested blood does not transmit directly to the veins anyway – it would be chemically broken down by the digestive system.

    4. Theoretical ingestion of blood to supply these nutrients would therefore have to occur at least once a day, and would require the ingestion of the entire blood supply which could not happen as the stomach is far too small to hold that much liquid volume. Hold up your clenched fist – under normal conditions your stomach is about that size. Furthermore, such a mass would be difficult to pass thru the intestines as it has no fibrous bulk, would create an intestinal impaction, causing massive vomiting from the large concentration of iron present, and any “real” vampire would have to eventually expel the waste, which would come out as a black, tarry, smelly goo, just as stool does when blood is present from a upper GI bleed.

    5. These humans that affect the whole “vampiric lifestyle” are NOT vampires. They are simply humans playing their own little game, in their own little fantasy world, usually pandering to their own little sexual fetish, which may or may not actually be sexual. I too, play my own little game, in the SCA, but mine is a game where the deeds that I do are determined by the strength of my arm and sword – I am a warrior, with just as much skill and ability as any warrior of ancient times. The difference is that I am claiming to be something physically possible: a warrior, and I prove it everytime I strap on my armor and walk onto a SCA battlefield. The so-called “vampires” are claiming to be something physically impossible: a walking corpse, and all they prove is that black Victorian clothing, a pair of false fangs, and a little makeup make for a good Halloween costume – it does not make you a vampire.

    6. Even if a vampire feeds once a week, and his victim also becomes a vampire, that is exponential growth, with four iterations a month. First iteration: One makes one, total two. Second iteration: Two make two, total four. Third iteration: Four make four, total eight. Fourth iteration: Eight make eight, total sixteen. 16 vampires at the end of one month, 256 at the end of the second month, 4096 by the end of the third month, 65,536 by the end of the fourth month, 1,048,476 at the end of the fifth, and 33,572,832 vampires at the end of half a year! By way of comparison, there are currently approximately 33 million people who have HIV/AIDS in the U.S. alone, and the disease is a world-wide epidemic. I see people every day in the hospital with AIDS, but never has there been one documented case of a vampire attack. Do the math – vampires are a mathematical impossibility. As for the idea that vampires existed “a long time ago” consider the estimated global population 5,000 years ago – using the above mathematical rationale, a single vampire could have taken over and converted every human on the globe in less than two years. This falls therefore, under the logic of Occam’s Razor – which states that when you have removed every impossible answer, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. Since there is no “vampiric plague” swarming the earth, the logical deduction is that they don’t exist.

    7. Point of clarification about “vampire” bats: vampire is simply the name we have given them because they do drink blood, same as a flea, mosquito, leech, or spider. Are these creatures vampires? No. They are living creatures, not legendary monsters. They can subsist on blood because of their smaller size and proportionately larger stomach volume. Drinking blood does not make you a vampire anymore than eating raw meat makes you a werewolf, although it might make you a mosquito.

    8.The humans who profess to be vampires are victims of an all-encompassing self induced delusion. They are as human as you or I, regardless of their claims, and if they ingest HIV tainted blood they can most certainly contract the disease, esp. if they have any cuts, sores, or lesions in and or around their mouth. It is a very dangerous delusion to be laboring under. Note that there is absolutely no scientific or medical proof that these people derive any benefit at all from the ingestion of blood, and even worse are the so-called “psychic” vampires, because their delusion is one that they cannot substantiate with any concrete evidence at all.

    9. There is no “vampire” gene. People are not “born” as vampires. When a woman goes to the hospital for prenatal care there are many tests done on mother and child, even while still in the womb, to check for many things, including genetic anomalies that result in deformities and birth defects. If such a gene existed, in today’s world with today’s technology it would have been found – we have already completely sequenced the human genome. It would also have to follow Mendel’s law of dominant/recessive gene theory. Again, the odds on that many “vampires” all escaping the notice of the medical/scientific community are so low as to be almost nonexistent. The idea that there is a global “vampire community” engaging in controlled breeding to keep the “bloodline pure” is delusional in the extreme.

    10. There is no “vampire virus” – as I have already pointed out, HIV is a virus, and look at how fast it has spread – virtually everyone knows someone with the affliction. According to the “vampire websites” there are “thousands” of vampires running around. If that was so then at least one of them has ended up in a hospital for bloodwork when they became pregnant, had a bloodborne infection, was injured in a car wreck, etc, etc, ad nauseum. The anomaly would have been detected and medical science would have isolated it, studied it, applied for research grants on it, published papers on it, and turned it into the talk of the medical and scientific community, as well as making its “discoverers” celebrities and rich beyond their dreams. A virus cannot alter your DNA in such a radical fashion without killing you.

    Point of Order: Vlad Tepes and Elizabeth Bathory were not vampires. They were sadistic tyrants who abused their power to feed their homicidal impulses, but they were humans who lived and died. The act of drinking blood does not make you a vampire anymore than eating grass makes you a cow.

    the only person to post other then me who is telling the truth about vampires is Zoe G although there spelling is atrocious and there facts aren’t 100% they are close. the are two types of vampire there is the sanguine vampires they drink blood but not large quantities at a time they drink a shot of blood maybe 2 or 3 times a week if even. then there are Psychic vampires or psi-vamps they feed off of the life energy that all living things are made of,(humans,animals,plants/trees,or just nature in general)

    email me when your ready to here the full truth

    LISTEN TO BEARCLAW ALL HIS INFORMATION IS CORRECT! THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO MARK HIM DOWN ARE PEOPLE WHO CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH!

    VAMPIRES CANT AND DONT EXIST!

  • candicewebb_18 said:

    hey. to awnser your question are vampires real. yes, although not what people make them out to be. just open your mind. if you mean do the vampires that everyone says cant come out in the sun are real, well no those are not real. however they do exsist. i even say it on the news. And in china they even make alternate blood for them. its really cool. and they to not really have to eat but they can eat our food

  • awesomenessxox said:

    I’m wondering the same question… maybe there are some among us. We are just too afraid to admit it. Scientifically if you think about it, it could be true if there are twilight vampires. For example, this venom can change up your DNA and add an extra chromosome. Maybe that’s why it’s so painful. This venom that has been injected could give you super-human abilities. It’s kind of difficult to explain… but couldn’t that happen? Maybe.

    I don’t know if it’s true if there are vampires. It’s totally unknown. Some people think it’s absolutely, 100% true that there are no vampires. But, how can we be sure? There are many things and phenomenons we can’t explain.

    There are people who drink blood,and feed on that,but there’s no such thing as flying bats and coffins and stuff,
