The Vampire Legend in Literature
Posted by: dkrainwater on: April 23, 2009
In known and forgotten realms of supernatural literature and belief there is no more horrible a demon than the one known as the vampire. His ravages to those who believe in such creatures are barbaric and sometimes horrific. Not only are the vampire’s methods brimmed with atrocities but the methods mortals use to rid the vampire from the earth are equally appalling. There is belief and fear of this monster of the night that exists even today. From the Baltic regions in Europe to the whispering arid wastelands of Middle Eastern countries the legend of the vampire is told and retold throughout the generations.
Even civilizations of the past have cringed upon the mere mention of the vampire no matter what language it is spoken in. From the Babylonian Empire to the deep jungles of the Aztec civilization, vampires are said to haunt the rich or poor alike, the common factor, the blood that is held within their bodies. Most of the legends talk of demons that walk the wastelands or forests and are likely to feast on travelers from time to time. Other legends talk of a romantic vampire who seduces beautiful women only to have sex with them and to take their life by draining them of their life force.
