Hello there Voaters, I ask that you please keep an open mind on this topic! The reason why is because I have been digging myself into a rabbit hole. I have found something interesting on my search through the rabbit hole.

In the past I had posted a thread: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1826069, about occult groups that are heavily involved in concept ,and symbolism.

However, the idea of Vampirism is basically as you already know drinking the blood of the young to help the vampire gain strength. Vampirism in the past was known as a great taboo for many people. However, in today's reality we see movies such a Twilight that bring Vampirism to a norm in society's point-of-view. However, you look at it rituals such as John Podesta's rituals with Marina Ambrovich. Show that some of these ideas in occult groups might share an idea of vampirism. Disclaimer I don't believe in Vampires, but the IDEA OF VAMPIRISM

Now, I know that these ideas I am throwing out there might be far fetched, but again we are dealing with people that go against the social norm of our society.

Question 1: Why was the idea of Vampirism created? https://www.livescience.com/24374-vampires-real-history.html

Question 2: Is Vampirism suppose to spread an idea or a deviant act to people? http://www.dartmouth.edu/~elektra/thesis.html <--------Actually a good read very well done

Question 3: Why is it that when I watch old horror movies of vampires I am supposed to be frighten of the idea? (on the other hand) Question 4: Why is it present day vampire movies suppose to be about befriending them and accepting there deviant acts?

Now lets be honest I don't believe in vampires, but I believe that the idea and concept has spread to human-beings.

Oh and did you know that there actually online websites of joining a vampire occult groups.

http://www.atlantavampirealliance.com/ ----------- This is only one link address many more.

Question 5: Is this the darker side of human trafficking? That's up for you to decide.

Again, I believe in the IDEA and CONCEPT of Vampirism, but I don't believe in vampires. ( Just to show you that I am not some crazy person that is going off the rails)

Thanks.
