About vampires ...

Vampires are vampires in English, which means zombies, and they are blood-sucking demons. It is a famous monster in the western world. It is a monster because it is in an awkward position: it is neither a god nor a devil, nor a human being. Just like being abandoned by God, this is vividly shown in the movie Vampire. As a demon image closely related to human beings (vampires usually hide in the crowd), it has been weird, scary and psychedelic in legends for hundreds of years. In the past century, with the rise of romantic literature and movies, the mysterious and beautiful vampire image has become a rich and lasting cultural plot-a strange nightmare from religion to perceptual worship.

Nowadays, vampires are mainly used to describe people who extract blood, sweat, money, thoughts or other resources from others.

What is a vampire

In Europe, the legend of vampires has been circulating all the time. Thousands of people believe this legend and tremble in the dark.

Vampires are an ancient and mysterious race. Theoretically, the so-called vampire can be understood as a dead body to some extent. They have no heartbeat and pulse, no breathing, no body temperature, and they are immortal. At the same time, they have their own thoughts, they can think, talk, walk, even get hurt and die.

The status of blood clan

Old lords, parents, princes, dukes, marquis, earl, viscount, baron, low blood clan.

Classification of vampires

Judging from the way of smoking, some vampires will keep livestock in captivity. These livestock are not animals such as cattle and sheep, but some human beings who voluntarily donate blood for some reason. Other vampires will use special occasions to lure humans to achieve their goals. There are also some vampires who usually take the form of attacks to force them to eat. Their power is far greater than that of ordinary people, and they have power that ordinary people can't get. In fact, in order to maintain their living conditions, they must feed on blood. Generally speaking, most vampires usually feed on human blood, but some vampires feed on the blood of animals and even other vampires.

People's views

Many people think that as long as vampires suck blood, the sucked person will become a vampire. This view is incorrect. People who are eaten by vampires may die, but they will not become vampires. If a vampire intends to turn a person into a vampire, he must give his blood to the other person. The victim received the blood of the smoker, and the two kinds of blood can be fused into vampires. This phenomenon of blood fusion will give the victim a completely wonderful feeling. This process is called "first hug". After the first hug, the victim became the offspring of the smoker. According to the secret party's precepts, vampires can't develop their offspring at will, and a vampire must be responsible for the behavior of their offspring.

Vampire's ability

Every vampire has extraordinary abilities. But this ability is not innate. Young vampires have almost the same abilities as ordinary people. But with the growth of age and experience, vampires will gradually explore their own abilities, thus making themselves stronger. Theoretically, the older the vampire, the stronger his ability. The ability of the third generation vampires can even be compared with God. In front of these vampires, ordinary people are vulnerable

What vampires are afraid of.

Many sources believe that vampires are afraid of many things, such as garlic, holy water and wooden stakes. Most of these rumors are incorrect. What vampires fear most is sunlight. Some powerful vampires have weak resistance to sunlight, but no vampire can resist sunlight. In addition, high temperature has a certain restraining effect on vampires, so vampires usually act at night, because daylight and high temperature during the day will seriously affect their thinking and ability. In addition, the third generation vampires keep a book that they think is sacred. Some substances in this book can make vampires walk in the sun like people, and the blood clan has struggled for it several times. Besides, vampires are not afraid of garlic and holy water. If someone has extremely strong religious beliefs, it is possible to temporarily suppress vampires with crosses, but vampires will never die. Similarly, stakes have no effect on vampires, but if you can nail a vampire's heart with stakes, you can temporarily paralyze it until it is pulled out.

Vampires are afraid of the sun, and the power of the fierce sun can "melt" them, but the sunshine in the morning, dusk and cloudy days is not enough to kill them, which will only make them weaker than usual. As for ultraviolet rays, vampires are not afraid. This fact is a valuable lesson learned by the police after investing millions in developing ultraviolet pistols and finding them useless.

In addition, some legends are false, vampires are not afraid of holy water, which may be related to the lack of real holy water in recent years. Who knows? I knew it was useless. Vampires are not afraid of the Bible, and some even recite it faster than priests.

After all, vampires are not particularly involved in anti-Christian beliefs. As early as hundreds of BC, blood-sucking people have existed in all cultures of the world for a long time, not only believed by western Christians.

Fortunately, some legends are true. Vampires are afraid of silver But the degree of fear of silver is related to the generation of vampires and the purity of silver; Some fresh vampires will die if they are hit by silver-plated bullets, but fierce vampires will only be injured by silver-plated bullets, not fatal (unless they are beaten into honeycombs), and silver bullets and spears will definitely make vampires seriously injured and dying.

However, it must be noted that vampires are not ghosts after all, so it is also effective to attack vampires with non-silver weapons. It's just the vampire's inner constitution that repairs wounds very quickly. Only silver can hinder the recovery speed of the wound and even lead to blood poisoning and death.

Vampires are distributed all over the world, and there are vampires wherever there are people, just like the relationship between people and mosquitoes.

Human nature of vampires

In fact, vampires themselves are not evil. After a person is controlled, he usually retains his humanity. These people will think that they can move and live freely as before. But at the same time, he began to be afraid of sunshine and high temperature. Can't go out during the day. He will feel his strong desire for blood. He will find himself living in the blood of people around him. These ideas are so strong that they are completely out of control. Gradually, his way of thinking and behavior will change. A vampire will try to resist his behavior at first, but in the end, his nature will prevail and he will gradually get used to the new way of life. Finally, he fully understood that he was no longer an ordinary person.

He is usually far away from the bustling area, living alone and not in contact with anyone. Because of my constitution, I won't get old. They will live in the world to witness the changes in the world around them and witness the death of their relatives and friends. And he can only feed on blood and life day after day. The human beings around him are just weak creatures, and they have no reason or need to respect and care for human beings. They despise human beings and are very jealous. Finally, they became demons.

The difference between vampires and ghosts

Extreme idealism emphasizes "escaping from the body" and advocates that life still exists after death, while the body is just a material shell, and the soul will live forever, waiting for the resurrection of the doomsday judgment. The souls of people expelled and abandoned by God, such as suicide and excommunication, cannot be saved. According to Christianity, these souls are "suffering souls" and do not belong to this life or the afterlife.

This is the difference between ghosts and vampires. Ghosts are spiritual substances that do not belong to the flesh, while vampires are ghosts and bodies possessed by evil spirits from the abandoned world. So they are evil and harmful alien elves!

The prevalence of superstition

/kloc-in the 0/8th century, reason won under the Enlightenment, and various superstitions were seriously frustrated during this period. On the contrary, the worship of vampires developed unprecedentedly in this period, which became a social phenomenon and attracted the attention of religious circles.

Many academic studies on vampires have been published, and on the other hand, rationalists have also criticized similar articles, which has become a long and fierce debate between works. In this case, it is impossible for the church to remain silent. Calme, the abbot of Senones Abbey, published a book about possessed ghosts, excommunicating Christians, vampires and Prometheans from Hungary and Moldavia. 1746 was published in Paris. His original intention was to refute vampire superstition, but a large number of related examples were cited in the book, which aroused people's debate.

There are only two results of this fight: first, this superstition used to be hearsay in many areas, but now it is widely known; The second is that everyone accepted the word vampire, which made "vampire" systematically fixed. Its other forms are "vampir", "vampire" and "Vampirus" in Latin.

In addition, since then, three characteristics of vampires have been generally accepted: it is an possessed ghost, not an empty ghost or a devil; Vampires come out of graves and coffins at night to eat or human blood can prolong their life; People who have been attacked by vampires will become vampires when they die.

Vampires have different abilities and characteristics.

No shadow: In some areas of Germanic culture, people think that vampires have no shadow, and both shadow and image are symbols of the soul, so vampires have no shadow and image in the soulless mirror.

Long and sharp canine teeth: vampires usually suck blood by cutting their teeth into the victim's neck, and some can hide this feature under normal conditions-this has become one of the most important characteristics of vampires.

Can become a bat: At present, vampires are always associated with bats, usually surrounded by bats, and they can become vampire bats themselves.

Living in graves and coffins: vampires often rest in coffins or graves during the day and exist in the form of corpses. Act only after the sun disappears. This is a ubiquitous and indisputable feature of vampires. People think vampires are afraid of sunlight.

Other characteristics: based on the processing and beautification of vampires in the field of modern art, it also has the following characteristics.

Men are handsome, slender and tall, while women are enchanting and beautiful. They often have their own castles and are nobles themselves. These are several historical figures from the Middle Ages. Wearing a black dress, and a cloak and cloak with black outside and red inside or all black, pale skin, red lips, red eyes and a high bun. Fingers become hard claws. Cold body. They are extremely fast and can fly-some vampires are familiar with magic and have incredible spiritual power. Great strength, except fatal weakness, is not afraid of any attack and will not die. With great wisdom.

Vampire injury

Early vampires were evil spirits who simply sucked human blood, similar to werewolves in European legends. After the Middle Ages, especially the rise of romanticism, vampires have a strong color of sex and lust because of their unique way of existence. The main attack method is blood sucking, and a few are cannibalism. As a vampire, you can often seduce the opposite sex and unconsciously take the other person's life.

"He smiled vaguely, put one hand on my shoulder, then hugged me, and the other hand grabbed my chest. ……

I was frightened, but strangely enough, I didn't want to resist him at all. I suspect that this is a spell he put on me. Jesus Christ. Have pity on me! ……

I was getting weaker and weaker, and almost passed out. I don't know how long this situation (vampires) will last ... "

"Sometimes I feel a hand slipping gently from my face to my neck. Other times, passionate lips are kissing me. The closer you get to your chest, the more passionate you kiss, but it stops when you get to your chest. My heart beat faster, I stopped short of breath, and my throat gave a hoarse gasp. Then I felt my neck strangled, and then I lost consciousness ... "

When vampires attack, they generally don't make the victims feel pain. In many vampire works, many victims (both men and women) become their food with smiles and happy expressions. The results of vampire attacks are different, and there are roughly the following categories:

Pure blood-sucking, the victim will not die after being attacked, nor will he become a vampire, but he will be weak because of blood loss. The derivative of this method is that sometimes vampires will suck the blood of the victims, causing people to bleed to death.

Sucking blood instead of others: As before, the victim will become a vampire after death, or with the spread of the virus, the person attacked by vampires will become a vampire in a short time. It is said that zombies who become similar are all low-level, lack their own wisdom and become simple bloodthirsty lunatics.

The way to become a vampire

According to novels and movies:

Generally speaking, every mortal may become a vampire after death, especially those who are excommunicated, commit suicide, die suddenly, wizards, children who die young, and those who have never had a Christian funeral after death. Some people are doomed, such as those who were born with teeth in their mouths or membranes on their heads, with extremely dark or bright eyes and red and brown hair, like Judas who betrayed Jesus, or with red spots on his body. Vampires themselves can have offspring, and all the abilities and characteristics of the previous generation will be inherited.

Another view is that if attacked by vampires, they can directly become vampires and spread constantly-of course, these are relatively low-level zombies. There is also the practice of turning yourself into a zombie through a special ceremony, that is, signing a so-called devil contract.

The most perfect statement is that you can turn yourself into a vampire and a demon with powerful and strange abilities by sucking the blood of vampires.

Being sucked by purebred vampires can become the lowest vampire. There is an inseparable connection between the human who becomes a vampire and the pure vampire who sucks his blood. When you become a vampire, you will eventually lose your mind. There is only one way to stop depravity, that is, to suck the blood of pure vampires who turn themselves into vampires.
