2 points i wanna make...
A. Vampires are more of a race then a species, nomadic, and generally stick close to their own families and other core vamperic families, i was born into it. We are real, We age, We bleed, We die.
Silver crosses, silver bullets, crosses and holy water dont phase us.
Stakes to the heart will kill us, but it will kill a human too.
The fangs are not always prodominant though i have them.
Blood is ussually only consumed from an old belief that blood is a life force, and you ussually find one parter as you would with sex or marriage, and its a symbol of your dedication to that mate and being one with them, it is simply symbolic in the sense that you are becoming one with their 'life force' traditionally... media strewn vampires are fakes, frauds, and blood lusting vamps are rejected by actual vamperic culture.
B. READING TWILIGHT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A VAMPIRE
TWILIGHT VAMPIRES ARE FAIRIES IN DISGUISE
