Vampyr
Welcome to my vampire pages. These pages are dedicated
to the most deadly, fearsome, and mysterious creature that has ever hunted
the legends and myths of humanity. Here you will find lists of vampire
films, literature, and poetry. Along with the origin of Dracula and a few
vampire links that I have come across.
My name is Onyx MoonShadow. If you've been to the
rest of my site then you already know that. I'm a celtic wiccan and a psychic
vampire. Strange combination but it's me. I've always been fascinated by
vampires. They are human and more then human at the same time. There are
many species of vampire throughout the world. From my research there appears
to be 3 basic groups that all vampires can be divided into: Living,
Dead, and Spirit. There appears to be all kinds of crossovers, for
example:
-
A human can be born a vampire.
-
A human can be killed and turned into a vampire.
-
A corpse may be inhabited by a spirit and become a vampire.
That is just one example. There are animal vampires, spirit vampires (creatures
without a physical body), and in some areas of the world vegetables and
inanimate objects can also become vampiric.
There are several theories about the origin of
vampires. I'm only going to list three of them.
-
The Curse of Jehovah upon Caine when he slew his brother Abel.
-
They were a race that existed side by side with humans since the evolution
of man.
-
They were actually an alien race from another planet.
These are the most common theories that I have come across so far. I'm
sure that there are others out there but I haven't come across them enough
to write them down. I personally like the third one... not sure why, just
do.
