Maybe it is not a metaphor but an actual occurrence, they could literally be sucking the blood out of unsuspecting humans and causing them to fall into mind controlled trances without them even knowing.

Maybe a metaphor is just a metaphor
or....
Maybe there is a god.
Maybe there is a devil.
Maybe the Bible is literal truth.
Maybe there are aliens ruling the world.
Maybe those aliens are shape-shifting reptilians.
Maybe Planet-X will destroy the Earth in September.
Maybe JRod has his own F-16 and no genitals.
Maybe Barry's birth certificate was real.
Maybe we go to heaven when die...
than again, maybe not.
Young Blood Reverses Signs of Aging in Old Mice
A mysterious substance in blood rejuvenates blood-forming stem cells.
In parallel research, scientists at Harvard University also discovered that a ‘youth protein’ which circulates in the blood is responsible for keeping the brain and muscles young and strong.
The protein, known as ‘GDF11’, is present in the bloodstream in large quantities when we are young but peters out as we age.

There probably is a secret vampire society... but it's most likely made up of youth in their teens to mid-20's who like to wear capes and dark makeup, and their 40-something master Balthasar the Eternal, who refuses to drink any beverages that are not dark red, and instructs them on how to better serve their dark lord.
Likely in their late 20's, they will realize that the neck tattoos and extreme body modifications are not conducive to gainful employment (there's a lot of competition out there, and it's always helpful to look professional), and they will rejoin the living, leaving Balthasar to recruit new children of the night into his nest.
I kinda feel sorry for Balthasar. His followers will grow older in his presence, but he will never age.
