they need blood to sustain their undead bodies a.ka. they need it to stay alive

Only a minority of vampires are blood suckers. The defining trait of a vampire is something that steal life energy. This has been accomplished in many difference ways by many different types of creatures.

.........................................................

Added on............................................

Vampires are considered dead, undead or the living dead....

As such they cannot create something called HEMOGLOBIN (or haemoglobin), this is created within living creatures and is the main part of red blood cells...

(They drink blood to obtain hemoglobin.)

This is used to transport the necessary items to the rest of your body, for example your muscles.

Vampires will become worn down, drained, movement may suffer and may even appear ill if they do not receive the sufficient materials from the red blood cells.

also, because they are undead, they don't have a heart beat which means that they don't have blood. and even the undead need blood to survive. so they needed to find a way to get that blood and they found humans.

Why do vampires suck blood?

first of all I'm sure if vampires were real they WOULDN'T suck blood they would pierce a neck and drink the blood. with a vampire they are dead so my theory would be is that if vampires were real they would suck blood in order to replace the blood they had lost while consuming it. though I do not believe that vampires absolutely can not exist I would not say I wouldn't want them too. also If you have read a few short vampire stories you would know that blood tastes like nothing we can taste. And also to spread vampire-ism (weather you believe the bite would kill the victim or turn them is your opinion)

Are vampires real that are not in books or movies or fairy tales?

Vampires are real... They are not like the vampires you see in movies or like the kinds you read about in fiction books! But, there are humans that are considered vampires because they do consume human blood. So if you drink blood you are a vampire because that's what vampires do. Vampires don't fly or anything but they are real people. They are just like you and me but the only difference is they drink your blood. Now, some vampires only drink the blood of doners. Yes, people actually donate there blood to vampires. But, other vampires kill inocent people for there blood. There was a story about a girl who was kidnapped by a vampire, and she watched this vampire take out her blood with a needle and put it into a glass and drink it. Luckly, she got out and got a ride to the hospital. Her blood was really low and she almost died. But, she escaped and told this story. So some vampires are harmfull, and others are harmless.
