Why are वैंपायर so appealing? और सवालों inside....

While I know my personal reasons for liking vampires, the literature, films and the specific appeal from my own point of view, I am और interested in the appeal for others. I don't think my own reasons can simply be universal.

So here are my सवालों aimed at YOU:
-why do आप like vampires?
-When do आप turn to vampire fiction/ films?
-What do आप do with your interest in Vampires?
-What else in your life is driven द्वारा your interest?
-what is the most appealing part of vampires/ vampiric lore?
-what is the least appealing?

I understand if these are not the kind of things आप are used to या want to discuss, however आप cannot deny that your interest in वैंपायर is much deeper than surface interest, या that it is और than commercially superficial. Doesn't it make आप wonder?....

वैंपायर जवाब

KiaLuvsRicky said:
Interesting question. I've always loved वैंपायर since I was 9 years old, and even now, at the age of 19, I still can't deny my admiration for them. I like to believe it has something to do with a sinister appeal; a प्यार for the dark side, and a forbidden sexuality. वैंपायर have come a long way from their beginning. It's interesting to see the evolution of these amazing creatures in fantasy, from Nosferatu, to Dracula, and even the teen/tweeny-bopper stuff they have now such as Twilight (but I prefer the original stuff, myself. Sorry Twi-hards!).
I have always had a kind of a dark side, and on the side of vampires, witches have always been another प्रिय of mine, and I believe that it's the sinister side that we are forced to repress in our daily lives, that makes these creatures so attractive. Anyone, such as myself, who has always had a connection with the darker things in life would find a something like a vampire arousing. They revolve around our fear and desire. It is almost like a fetish for fear. In the kind of stories about वैंपायर that I like and enjoy लेखन myself, typically they are these voluptuous creatures that seduce आप for your blood. I could never get into the Twilight series because I felt those वैंपायर were too soft. They didn't carry that sinister appeal like the typical vampire does. To me, वैंपायर should be evil. They should be frightening and they should be creatures of the night (which means no glittering in the sun; once again, sorry, Twi-hards). In my view, the modern फिल्में and TV shows are taking away from वैंपायर what made them so appealing to begin with, and this is just my opinion. My obsession for the vampire has always been their sinister outlook and bloody appetite. And although I've spoken a lot about the seductive vampire, I also enjoy the vampire on his और hideous side, such as Nosferatu and the और modern 40 days of night, as those bring an exciting thrill.
I'd like to conclude that everyone will be different in their attraction to these beautiful, night creatures, and that I'm not bashing anyone on their opinions. But I will always have my vampire obsession for the same reason I always have; they're blood-lusting seductive killers which I cannot deny a प्यार for. And, all-in-all, they and witches (which is a whole other topic) will always hold the सोना medal, for me, in creatures of folk-lore.

आप asked me what my least प्रिय thing about them was, but I guess I can't really answer that question, या at least not with the original vampire, that is. I guess I just प्यार them too much. But if I had to pick...I guess...er...they have to be invited to come in? I don't know. I can tell आप that I hate "True Blood" lol. Have a nice day:)

I like वैंपायर because of the forbidden excitement that the creatures of night have. They are so mysterious and consuming and dangerous and I प्यार it. I am always पढ़ना या watching something about vampires, a little obsessive, but I cant help it. I dont do much with my interest, but I have adapted some of the mysterious qualities to myself. Well, uhm, my "personal" life, to put it lightly, is driven द्वारा my interest. The most appealing qualities are, well, most of them. I dont like the whole "invited in" thing, nor do I like the whole no reflection thing, I like to see myself in the mirror.
