Vampire Myths

VAMPIRE FACTS & MYTHS

MYTH: Vampires are destroyed by silver.

FACT: This is a misconception. Werewolves are the ones who are actually 'allergic' to silver.


MYTH: Vampires die from being staked.

FACT: Anything dies from being staked at the heart. Duh. This comes from the fact that a vampire is unable to regenerate a damaged heart; meaning ANYTHING can destroy a vampire if it takes a grievous blow there.

However it's more advised to destroy the brain rather than the heart; some vampires have gotten so old or gorged on blood that being staked in the heart staggers them at most.


MYTH: You must invite a vampire to let it inside your house.

FACT: False! Vampires can totally fuck you up whenever they want to.


MYTH: Garlic harms vampires.

FACT: It does indeed harm vampires!


MYTH: Vampires can't see reflections.

Fact: They can.


MYTH: Vampires can't tolerate religious artifacts.

FACT: Vampires can actually be religious AND vampiric.


MYTH: Sunlight harms vampires.

Fact: True. It varies for different species though. Some vampires are actually scared of/or harmed by any light not produced by the sun. Vampires can actually counteract sunlight by applying sunblock, which is a common practice.



MYTH: Vampires are hawt

Fact: Varies. Some vampires are attractive, some are hideous. It varies just as much as normal humans do. A blood-starved vampire is always hideous or unhealthy. This myth may come from the fact that the vampire's are adept at mind control and compelling people to doing what they want.



Myth: You should decapitate a vampire to make sure it stays dead.

Fact: Very true. Vampires can regenerate injuries within minutes; or even, seconds.


MYTH: Vampires are pale.

Fact: Not really. There are some vampires that are actually tan.
