]I third this post. All A vampire is, is a human. Vampirism is a cult. They are humans who do these things because of religious reasons. There is nothing special or supernatural about them.
Lets leave fiction and LSD addicts alone and return to reality. Yanno? A life? IF you really have one.
It isn't a cult, and I severely wish people would stop using that as an excuse to bash them. Yes, SOME groups of vampires can be considered a cult. Some people are just downright weird, creepy, disturbing, delusion, and just generally crazy mofo's. I've met a couple of those, and it wasn't pleasant. However, that assumption doesn't apply to the entire community. There are plenty of vampires who lead fulfilling lives, have a good family, and are successful in their careers. Skepticism is one thing but please get your facts straight.
