The origin of vampires is to be introduced in English, thank you

The ancestor of the vampires was Cain. Descendants of noble European royals.

Originally, Duke Herbert III of England was the first vampire. He was baptized by the moonlight, and in the process of looking directly at the moon, he was promoted to a noble vampire, and there are still a large number of vampires in reality, the eyes of vampires are generally black, the eyes of large vampires are crimson, the eyes of top vampires are purple gold, and the Shadow Temple of the Silent Legion is an authentic vampire and has no shadow.

Vampire legends originated from the worship and fear of blood, which some believed to be a symbol of the soul and life, and a bad omen. Some people believe that Lilith was the first vampire and the most powerful of the bloodline, while others believe that the vampire was a descendant of Cain, the son of Adam and Eve, who was punished by God for killing his brother and became the first vampire (some say that Lilith taught Cain to live by sucking blood).

And I said to the children of Israel, "Do not eat the blood of any living creature, for that is their life, or you will be punished!" (The Law of Moses, Old Testament, Leviticus) The earliest images of vampires are difficult to pinpoint, but in general there are the following arguments: Cain, punished by Jehovah for killing his brother Abel, became an immortal bloodthirsty monster, the ancestor of vampires.

Note: Many people think that Dracula is the ancestor of vampires, but in fact it is not, Dracula is just a ** character written by a European writer in the late nineteenth century, not from the real sense of vampire legends.

Vampire traits originate from a disease called porphyria, in which patients are afraid of sunlight and need blood transfusions to stay alive, and some people have burned their noses or ears because they accidentally see sunlight, making it seem like they have been alive for a long time.

Although it is only a Western legend, it is sought after by many people, and at first the movie presented a terrifying zombie image, but later it was glorified. Vampires behave similarly to rabies and a disease called hemoporphyria, in which the patient's behavior is reminiscent of that of a vampire, and the appearance of the patient is altered (e.g., necrosis of the nose and mouth, etc.).

But these are all fantasies about the unknown, and different versions will be born over time. Details are provided later. In the Middle Ages, people in the West found that some corpses had blood flowing from their mouths and noses after they were buried after death, which would be considered "vampires", believing that the corpse would come out at night to suck blood, so they pressed the head of the corpse with a heavy stone and nailed through the heart of the corpse with a wooden nail to prevent it from "doing evil".

This phenomenon occurs mainly due to the unequal pressure inside and outside the body after death, resulting in the outflow of residual body fluids in the body.

The origin of the legend of blood-sucking creatures can be traced back thousands of years, and in the myths and legends of the early Mesopotamian civilization, the ancient Hebrew civilization, the ancient Roman civilization, etc., there were demons who sucked human essence. But the creation of the image of the vampire in the true modern sense mainly came from the compilation and publication of oral folklore in Eastern Europe in the 18th century.

In these legends, a vampire refers to a corpse that is able to crawl out of a grave and suck blood after death. Under the conditions of underdeveloped medical treatment, some people who did not really die, but were only in shock, were buried, and then when they woke up or regained their activities, they were regarded as immortal beings. During the Black Death epidemic in Europe, the fear of the continued activity of the dead was created in situations of extreme panic, hence the legend of German vampires like Nitat, who had the ability to spread the Black Death.

The image of vampires in current popular culture is quite different from ancient European legends, first published in Irish writer Bram Stoker's 1897 Gothic horror about vampires, Dracula.

This ** is based on Vlad III, lord of Wallachia (a principality in southern Romania) in the 15th century. Dracula, the protagonist of the book, is different from the ugly, inintelligent animal figures of vampires in ancient myths and legends, and the author portrays the vampire as a gentleman who is polite, intelligent, attractive to the opposite sex, and able to control the minds of his victims. The success and popularity of this book has made Dracula synonymous with vampires.

Almost all of the early vampire movies were based on this one.

In 1976, American writer Anne Rice published the book "Interview with the Vampire", which was adapted into a film of the same name in 1994, which had a great influence on the image of vampires in later popular culture.

But Anne Rice's vampire images are also slightly different from traditional ones, for example, her vampires are not afraid of garlic or crosses, nor are they crucified by stakes.

There are quite a few modern video games and fantasy**, among which the vampire character is set in the 1991 role-playing game "Vampire: Millennium Latent" released by White Wolf Games.

In this game, the ancestor of the vampire is Cain, the son of Adam, who was cursed by God to be the first vampire for killing his own brother. From Cain onwards, vampires transformed humans into new vampires through the first embrace, which in turn formed thirteen clans with different abilities.
