  • Vampires are mythical undead beings who subsist of the blood of people or other animals. Tales of vampires have been around since the Ancient Greeks, Ancient Romans, and Hebrews.
  • There are many cultural myths surrounding how people become vampires, including: being born with hair, being a witch or wizard, people who commit suicide, people who do not receive a proper burial, people who have suffered a violent death, unbaptized children, being the seven son of a seventh son, excommunicated people, and criminals.
  • There are also many myths surrounding how to destroy a vampire, including: beheading, burning, burying a potential vampire face down, or driving a wooden stake through its heart.
  • There are several things people would do to ward off vampires. It's commonly believed that vampires are afraid of garlic, so farm animals were often covered in garlic to keep them safe and garlic was hung over doorways. Vampires were also thought to be afraid of mirrors and silver, so silver crosses were also often displayed to ward off vampires.
  • The character of Count Dracula from Bram Stoker's famous book is almost synonymous with the word vampire nowadays. Even though the legend of vampires existed long before, the popularity of Bram Stoker's Dracula novel is cited as the inspiration for the popularity of vampires in theatre and film thoughout the 20th and 21st century.
