Are The Vampire Diaries like twilight?

Answer 1

Similar: * the thirst for blood (necessary vampire trait), extremely long lives; * the younger vampire disguises himself as a high school student (backstory, serves as a basis for the plot); * a human girl finds out about his secret after much investigation and falls in love with him; * the arrival of another vampire in the town creates the confrontation. Different: * The heroine of Diaries is initially a popular girl, shallow and selfcentred, but develops into a more likeable character over the story. The heroine in Twilight is a likeable person * The vampires in Diaries retain most of their traditional properties (the blood exchange, death in sunlight) where Twilight makes them out as virtually indestructible. * The heroine falls in love with two vampire brothers in the Diaries as opposed to one in Twilight; * there is only one vampire in the town at the beginning of the story in Diaries, where a whole clan is present in Twilight; * In Diaries, the heroine dies after a car crash, but becomes a vampire because of the blood exchange with both vampires - this occurs quite early in the overall story arc. In Twilight, the heroine is made a vampire by her lover after a birthing almost kills her, and she had wanted to become one - this does not occur until the fourth and final book. * The newly arrived vampire travels alone and eventually falls in love with the heroine, and is also the brother of the original vampire. In Twilight, the travelling vampire has some companions, is of no relation to the clan, and selects the heroine as a target. There are many more similarities and differences between the two series, some more minor than others.

Answer 2

Not really, but i think vampire diaries is much better than twilight though...There were more action in the vampire diaries.

--------------------------------------------------

Answer 3

Well, I'm going by the TV series. First of all, Edward can go in the sun, but he sparkles. Stefan can't go in the sun unless he is wearing a special ring, which keeps him from burning. Also, when Edward is blood-hungry, his eyes just turn red. Stefan's face turns a grey shade, then wrinkle-like lines form under his eyes, and pointy teeth appear so he can get into the bloodstream. Also, Edward can read minds, Stefan can't. He can only control a mortals mind by using what they call, compulse. Stefan is also a lot older than Edward. Lastly, Stefan fights with his brother constantly, for he does not approve of his brother feeding on humans. Edward on the other hand gets along great with his family because they all have the same lifestyle.

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

well in away... yes because 2 guys are fighting over the main girl even though in twilight ( Jacob black and Edward Cullen ) ones a werewolf and the other is a vampire and in the vampire diaries ( stefan and Damon salvatore ) they are both brother vampires . also the main girls ( Bella Swan-now Cullen- and Elena Gilbert ) turn into vampires in the last book of their series and ofcourse the fact that its about vampires !

and no because in vampire diaries there's Katherine pierce ( a vampire that looks exactly like Elena and later is to be revealed a relative ) and Elena's friends' lives like bonnie ( a witch ) and in twilight the focus is sometimes mainly on the cullens and the evil vampires James Victoria and laurent or the werewolf pack

and also the vampire difference's like in vampire diaries they can burn in fire and i think light and can survive only on blood ( like the ancient fictional vampires ) , and in twilght they can eat human food but have problems with digesting but say it tastes like dirt, they can see there reflection , are beautiful but sparkle in the light and arent harmed by things that ancient fictional vampires are.

so there are different but a little the same

Answer 5

Both vampires and Zombies are dead bodies re-animated. The major distinction would be that zombies cannot heal or even maintain their bodies and tend to rot. Vampires however, by stealing nutrients and life-force from victims, can heal and maintain their bodily health.

In actuality, considering all the different types of creatures in these two categories there is a continuum from the most rotten zombie and the most psychic of vampires. The 'dividing line' would be with those vampires can maintain their bodies but cannot recover major wounds and amputations.

Answer 6

While both The Vampire Diaries and Twilight involve vampires and romance, they have different storytelling styles and themes. The Vampire Diaries is more focused on a darker, supernatural world with complex relationships and conflicts, while Twilight leans towards a lighter, teen romance with a focus on eternal love.

Answer 7

They are both really good. Twilight has some really big good plots while the vampire diaries have tones of small plots and great cliff hangers.
