Do Vampires Really Exist?

Over the last few years I have come to look at the world in a different way. For years while growing up in North Carolina I heard plenty of ghost stories and my Grandmother and her daughter my Mom were able to see paranormal things that other people could not see. By the time I was eleven I realized that I also could see things like ghosts that a lot of other people either couldn't see or would not admit to seeing. My Grandmother and my Mother would also have visions of the future. And my grandparents and parents would tell strange terrifying tales of other creatures like grave robbers , angels , and vampires.

I remember when I was about fifteen I told my Grandmother that there was no such thing as a vampire. She took me outside and when she finished her story I was no longer sure about the existence of vampires. My Grandmother told me that day that she knew that I knew that ghosts were real and that she knew for a fact that there were a lot of other beings that most people were sure did not exist.

She knew of several vampire stories that had taken place in and around North Carolina and she told me that she believed in the existence of vampires. She said as a young girl she had been present when a grave was opened in a crypt in a church yard. Several people had made the claim that a young girl who had died and been buried in the above ground crypt had been appearing in and around the small mountain community where my Grandmother lived at that time.

My Grandmother said when the crypt was opened the coffin of the young girl was not completely closed. My Grandmother said men pulled the young girls coffin out of its niche and out onto the floor of the crypt. When the coffin hit the floor the lid finished opening and the young girl who had been in the coffin jumped out and snarled at the group of people standing there. When she did several men grabbed her and a large man with an axe cut the head off the young girl. She and her head were taken outside and burned on a large pile of brush. The girls coffin was also burned.

My Grandmother said the young girl had died about three years before and she had been seen ever since in and around the community where my Grandmother lived. Some people had claimed that the young girl would knock on their doors or windows and beg to be let in. Some people in the area had vanished and some had become very ill during the three years since the young girls death. My Grandmother said there was no way that the young girl could have been alive all that time in the coffin. She said that the young girl who jumped from the coffin that day had fangs and it was all six men could do to hold down the young girl while the one large man cut the head from the young girl. Was it a real vampire? I don't know but what I do know is that I believed my Grandmothers story. And I know as I have conducted more and more research into vampires that I have come across many supposedly true vampire stories.

Vampire Hunts Were Once Carried Out In The United States

It is also a well documented fact that in some parts of New England and Appalachia that real vampire hunts were conducted. Coffins were often dug up and corpses heads were often burned and heads were often chopped off. Is there the possibility that some of the vampire hunters were hunting real vampires?

Real Interview With A Vampire

Over the period of many months I watched as a man named Peter who claimed to be a real vampire answered questions from people on the Hub , Real Interview With A Vampire. I was skeptical at first but as I talked to the Vampire named Peter through Email and on the telephone I began to believe. Peter was indeed a real person. I don't know if he was a real vampire several hundred years old but he convinced me of his possible existence and he seemed so real. He was never out of character and I wish the interview could have continued. But people kept wanting Peter to contact them directly or turn them into a vampire and he had made it plain in the interview that this was not going to happen. He finally stopped showing up and ceased to contact me at all. Peter my friend you are missed. I would suggest if you want to read a very interesting story about vampires that you should click the link and read the Real Interview With A Vampire.
