Do Vampires Really Exist?
It is difficult to make a single, definitive
description of the folkloric vampire, though
there are several elements common to many
European legends. Vampires were usually
reported as bloated in appearance, and ruddy,
purplish, or dark in color; these characteristics
were often attributed to the recent drinking of
blood. Indeed, blood was often seen seeping
from the mouth and nose when one was seen in
its shroud or coffin and its left eye was oftenopen. It would be clad in the linen shroud it was
buried in, and its teeth, hair, and nails may have
grown somewhat, though in general fangs were
not a feature.
Discover the difference between truth and myth, fantasy and fiction.
Vampires are all the rage. Along with this craze about vampires, there aremany vampire myths floating around. Before you start believing any of these
myths, learn a few lessons from vampire history and discover the truth.
Myth #1 -- Vampires are Real
The myth of vampires came about during the 16th century. When
gravediggers opened mass graves to add more bodies to them, they
discovered corpses with blood running from their mouths.
Grave diggers believed this proved the corpses came back alive to suck the
blood from other humans. In reality, the corpses had blood running from their
mouths because of basic decomposition.
Gas builds up in the organs of decomposing bodies. The bodies bloat making
blood ooze from the mouths of the corpses.

Myth #5 -- There are Still Real Vampires Today
It depends on your definition of vampire. If you believe that vampires sleep in
coffins during daylight, come to life at night to suck the blood of victims and
fly around as bats, then no... there are no vampires.
Unfortunately, there are large numbers of very misguided people who truly
believe they are vampires and drink blood from willing victims.
Vampires have always been fascinating and the source of scary movies and
books. If stories about vampires thrill you and give you the goosebumps
you're seeking, that's fine. Just remember to keep truth and fiction about
vampires separate.
