    Nope, there is no REAL evidence proving vampires exist. If they did, we would all be dead or be vampires by now.

    Yup. They are SO real! One lives in my basement, you know. And another works at my local mcdonalds.

    Vampires DO NOT exist, and this can be proven with the application of logic, critical thinking skills, and verified scientific and medical data:

    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 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 population5,000 years ago – using the above mathematical rationale, a single vampire could have converted every human on the globe in less than six months. 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.

    There’s actually a video on Youtube about a woman who acts like a vampire
    Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=539xWgHhatM
    And another one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lnZWd4GJxI

    Edit: I don’t believe in vampires, but I thought these videos might help.

  • David said:

    yes we do exist. if you want proof read my source.

  • kilroymaster said:

    Like you I totally agree that vampires are very real entities and it would take hours of typing to tell you what I know about vampires………

  • purttynerdygal said:

    there is no solid evidence of vampires, but tons of people have claimed to have seen one. There are “”fake vampires” as in human drinking human blood. But honestly I sort of know that there are [can't explain why though =)]

  • Japee said:

    vampires don’t exist but there are vampire bats.

  • Ramsay said:

    think about it, if there was real solid proof of vampires it would be on the headlines by now.

  • Dont forget to be Awesome said:

    Maybe vampires exist.I haven’t seen one myself so i cant say they do.I haven’t heard of a case were they have found a dead body and all the blood has been sucked out of it,however there has been a case were all the blood has been sucked out of an animal, but there is and animal that sucks blood out of other animals.When you think about it the world has undiscovered things that no one has found out.If vampires are real then they must be hidden good, or they blend in with every day people you see at work,school and more.Like i said anything is possible so there is a possibility they are out there.

    Unfortunately this is the real world, a reality where the most interesting life form is seen by looking at a human!!
    I say unfortunately because it would be nice to have something supernatural walking on this earth. Of course vampires won’t exactly be the most ideal creatures to have strolling in the park, but it would still be nice to have something that goes against logic and is quite unreal……….prehaps like a vampire minus the whole blood sucking factor.
    Yes Yes i understand without its carnivorous side its no longer a vampire but a girl can only dream!!

  • WJB said:

    No they have always been a myth/legend

  • Daphne said:

    I’ve met real vampires. Them and other supernatural creatures exist. If you want any more information, you can email me at daphne.b.xoxo@gmail.com

    YOu can also message me. Also, you could attend a local vampire bar/culb although I highly advise against it, as vampires are dangerous.

  • cardimom said:

    yes they are a type of Chiroptera indigenous to areas in the Western Hemisphere, south of Texas.
    They usually feed on pigs. Their anticoagulant is called Draculin.

    The Strange and True case of
    PETER PLOGOJOWITZ
    The Case of the first Documented
    ‘Real’ Vampire?
    The story of Peter Plogojowitz dates back to 1725 and this official Government document was written by a German military official stationed in the village of Kisilova.

    The Strange and True case of
    Arnold Paul
    This Document was written in 1732 by the
    Regimental Field Surgeon Johannes Fluckinger
    To the Emperor
    Written by the first Documented
    ‘Real’ Vampire Hunter
    After it had been reported that in the village of Medvegia the so-called vampires had killed some people by sucking their blood, I was, by high degree of a local Honorable Supreme Command, sent there to investigate the matter thoroughly along with officers detailed for that purpose and two subordinate medical officers, and therefore carried out and heard the present inquiry in the company of the captain of the Stallath Company of haiduks (a type of soldier), Gorschiz Hadnack, the standard-bearer and the oldest haiduk of the village, as follows: who unanimously recount that about five years ago a local haiduk by the name of Arnold Paole broke his neck in a fall from a haywagon.

    The Vampire:
    His Kith and Kin
    “The Philosophy of Vampirism”
    by
    Montague Summers
    1928
    THE ORIGIN OF THE VAMPIRE

    Throughout the whole vast shadowy world of ghosts and demons there is no figure so terrible, so dreaded and abhorred, yet endowed with such fearful fascination as the vampire; who is himself neither ghost nor demon but who partakes of the dark natures, and possesses the mysterious and terrible qualities of both. Around the vampire have clustered the most sombre superstitions, for he is a thing which belongs to no world at all.

    I have lots of info concerning vampires on my site—hope it helps

  • papaw said:

    Vampires are only myths and figments of prolific writers imaginations. Vlad, the Impaler (real person) was the person upon whom the vampire characters were based, and Bram stoker was a talented writer that brought them to life, and gullible people are the ones who give a type of realism to them. sorry, they are imaginary figures.

    Granted I don’t believe in vampires but I did work with someone once who was a real pain in the neck.

  • Emmy said:

    NO! the only evidence of a “vampire” is bite marks on the ankle, but they proved it was a snake. There are no vampires!

  • daniel o said:

    well not like you would see in the movies, but in parts of the world there are vampire bats and mostly will feed on large animals such as cattle and so on

  • bookish said:

    If you really want to do research, go to the library. There are no real vampires, except for vampire bats.
