Vampire: The Mysterious Creature

____ Vampire, this creature is refer to the blood-sucking undead of Eastern European legends, but it has been often extended to qualify similar legendary creatures in other traditions and cultures. Some define vampire as a blood-sucking ghost; a soul of a dead person superstitiously believed to come from the grave and wander about by night sucking the blood of persons asleep, thus causing their death. This superstition is now prevalent in parts of Eastern Europe, and was especially current in Hungary about the year 1730.Vampires are created through a process called the Embrace. The Embrace is similar to normal vampiric feeding - the vampire drains her chosen prey of blood. However, upon complete exsanguination, the vampire returns a bit of her own immortal blood to the drained mortal. Only a tiny bit - a drop or two - is necessary to turn the mortal into an undead. This process can even be performed on a dead human, provided the body is still warm.
____Once the blood is returned, the mortal "awakens" and begins drinking of his own accord. But, though animate, the mortal is still dead; his heart does not beat, nor does he breathe. Over the next week or two, the mortal's body undergoes a series of subtle transformations; he learns to use the Blood in his body, and he is taught the special powers of his clan. He is now a vampire.
____Some vampire clans Embrace more casually than others, but the Embrace is almost never given lightly. After all, any new vampire is a potential competitor for food and power. A potential childe is often stalked for weeks or even years by a watchful sire, who greedily evaluates whether the mortal would indeed make a good addition to the clan and the line.
____The vampire myth appears to have originated in Transylvania, according to the Stoker novel. Dracula is known to be the first vampire to be called. He is a placid man that appears harmless. His been treated as the curse of the surrounding towns, and the descendants of a strange disease.
____Today there are actually some cults of “vampires” that exist. These are the people who drink small amounts of blood from willing victims because they believe that it will give them power like a vampire.I did'nt how far the truth of this cult but its for those people who's believe in this.
