Vampires

Vampires are mythological or fictional beings typically depicted as undead creatures that feed on the blood of the living. Originating from folklore, they are often characterized by their immortality, hypnotic abilities, and aversion to sunlight, garlic, or holy symbols. In stories, they are portrayed as nocturnal predators who can transform into bats or other animals, and possess enhanced strength and senses. While vampires have no basis in scientific reality, they serve as compelling symbols of death, desire, and the unknown in literature and popular culture.
