Can people become a vampire after death?

Answer 1

Vampires aren't real. But since they can't get pregnant they bite people to make more vampires To the creators of the myth, death was not scary enough. After all everyone is destined to die, but being turned into an 'undead' was terribly scary.

Answer from a licensed medical doctor:

They don't. This is a total myth first started from historians describing a former Romainian ruler called "Vald the Impaler" (look it up on Wikipedia). This was a former count of Romania who would drain the blood of his enemies and sometimes forego that and just place their living bodies on a stake on the bridge of his castle (not a nice man really). Like every "urban legend" Vald has become to be known for much more than he truly was. He later became known as "Count Dracula".

Vampires make good story-telling and that's it. The Horror writers of the late 18 and 19ths centuries took these old stories and made them into the legends we know and love today. I'm a doctor and can tell you for 100% certain that vampirism is impossible and that you simply can not become an immortal blood sucking undead. Drinking another persons blood will do nothing to them other than leave a mark and make them upset at you. It will also do nothing to you other than give you a few extra calories and a slight taste in your mouth. As a doctor I have met a few teenagers (and adults) who honestly thought they were vampires and every single one was not immortal and actually was suffering from a mental illness, or from a delusion. Either way they were no more a vampire than Fred Flintstone was an astronaut.

Vampires stories also stem fro the true vampire bat who gets it's name from biting and sucking the blood of cows and other farmlife. Goths today tend to stick to these stories and believe them out of a feeling and longing to be different from everyone else and a desire to be something other than they are. Sorry, but we are who we are and frankly, we are all different and unique anyway. No blood sucking required! :-)

Answer 2

No, the concept of becoming a vampire after death is purely fictional and not based on any scientific evidence or real-life experiences. Once a person has died, biological processes cease and they do not have the capacity to transform into a vampire or any supernatural being.
