Int he book Sweetblood, the main character (who has insulin dependent Diabetes) suggests/is convinced that the idea for vampires came from untreated insulin dependent diabetes wa-a-a-a-ay back when. You should check the book out if you want to hear more on the characters theory. ^^

The concept of vampires has been inspired by a variety of cultures and folklore throughout history, including Eastern European legends of undead beings, ancient Mesopotamian and Babylonian demons, and writings from authors like John Polidori, Bram Stoker, and Anne Rice. The modern image of vampires as charismatic, immortal beings with a thirst for blood has been shaped by a combination of these influences.
