In other words, vampires are the creatures that feed on with blood. What is a vampire Although they typically described as undead, some minor traditions believed in vampires that were living people. They were most commonly thought of as spirits or demons（恶魔） that left their graves at night to seek and enslave their victims; it was thought that the victims themselves became vampires.
