Beliefs in vampiric creatures date back to ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Greece, and Egypt. These beliefs evolved over time through folklore, superstition, and literary depictions, with the modern vampire mythos taking shape in Eastern Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries. Influences include historical figures like Vlad the Impaler, superstitions about death and the undead, and the spread of vampire literature such as Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”
