"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"
Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

Depends on the canon, really. If you wanna go with the authentic Hungarian roots, the requirements to be a vampire are fairly tight. Likewise, Haitian Voodoo has some pretty tight requirements on what a zombie actually is.
Once you cross the pop culture wall, no holds barred. It depends entirely on the author.
