Greetings,

I am currently in the midst of collecting as many Vampire encounters, sightings records as possible. These stories are for a personal interest and will not be shared nor published in any shape or form. And I am well aware of vampire existence skepticism so please refrain from telling me they are not real, It would be a waste of time and further more do not bash this thread.

PS: If possible provide the country the encounter has happened in,if you wish you can also provide province, state, city...this is so I can approximate where the most sightings occur.

Are there really REAL vampires? It's a subject I've never really looked into. I mean, I've read Dracula and all the Anne Rice novels but I thought they were just stories.

Something rings a bell though. I read a few years back about some village in Mexico? where there were crosses outside every house and signs everywhere too about "los Vampiros" and I think they were having a lot of alien (entity) sightings and cattle mutilations too.

Well, for the past three weeks my neighbors have been staying indoors all day, but when the sun goes down, they come outside. If that isn't strange enough, it is usually around 20 degrees F during the time they are out there. I don't think they're vampires, but they are definitley up to something, considering they're on welfare but they drive around in a Cadallac Escalade SUV

I wish I had some events in which I could share with you, but sadly I do not. I am also a believer and wish I could have a first hand encounter with one. Preferably a hot leather-clad male vampire -cough-

But seriously, good luck with that. I'm sure there is someone who has had such an encounter. I hope we are not talking about psychic vampires like jackinthebox said. I would really love to hear about the ones that gave us a reason to be scared if we walked down an alley way at night.

Again, good luck, I will be sure to check back on this thread every once and a will to see if you have gathered any. Hopefully you can discover where these nosferatu are hiding.

[Identifying a vampire's grave]

Step #1: Obtain a youmg male horse. Its hide must be as black as a void.

Step #2: Guide the horse through the graveyard. Over one grave the horse will refuse to pass.

vampires are as real as ghosts frankinstine and the tooth fairy simple as that

I know that one of you reading this post has a story, I dont understand your hesitation.

It's not a matter of hesitation, but preferance. Don't you think it would be more fun to reveal to a non-believer who won't even believe their own eyes?

Years ago when I was 18, my best friend and I had gone to the Zen Music Festival in Miami, it started at 10PM I believe. It was outdoor arena... seeing as it was essentially a rave, people weren't really going to be showing up till around midnight. There wasn't much to do, so my friend and I were just chatting away from the stage, there was no one else around that we knew of. Out of nowhere someone tapped on my shoulder, we turned around to find a woman that appeared to be in her early twenties. She started some basic chit-chat, and I noticed she had fangs. Not to unusual, you tend to see things like that at raves and/or fetish parties. I did take notice after a few minutes that there was no way that they were just plastic tooth caps. Of course if she was really committed to impersonating a vampire she could have had dental surgery to give her nice long fangs. Who knows.

Anyhow, she was very formal while speaking, and I felt very uncomfortable around her. Don't know why, I find it easy to talk to pretty much everyone if approached, but there was something not right about her in general. She pulled out a little pamphlet, that showed you how to do heroin, etc. We gave it back to her, and she asked if we wanted to come to an after party her "group" was holding. We declined but she gave us the address anyway, we turned back to the direction we had originally been facing. We both comment that the whole situation was odd.... and I looked back to see if she was still nearby, but she was just gone. We weren't near any groups of people for her to disappear into, no bathrooms, no exits.... not even 15 seconds had passed, and she was just gone.

Although having no intention of going to the party, we did decide to drive by the address she gave us, just to take a look. It was a rather large two story house. Our guess was that it probably had six bedrooms or so. All of the lights were on, no one seemed to be there, and there was someone sitting on the roof. Obviously we kept on driving, but of all the people I have met at events over the years, none of them have stuck with me quite like this one. Did I meet a vampire? Maybe, maybe not, to this day, I don't know.
