According to 'modern' lore, its supposed to repel vampires. Like how bug spray would repel mosquitoes.
However, if you go by the original Transylvanian legend, its not mentioned at all.
garlic keeps vampires away
In the Twilight series, the Cullen family are vampires and garlic doesn't have any effect on them. They are immune to garlic's supposed negative effects on vampires, like repelling them or weakening them.
Garlic
garlic and sunlight
All vampires can't eat garlic and pumpkin cause they areallergic to it and probally the hate the smell.
Immune is the wrong word. There are vampires that are unaffected by garlic, as it has no special meaning to vampires in general. Count Dracula had a strong adverse reaction to the stuff and from his fame the stereotype has become applied to all vampires. If you are being molested by a vampire do not count on garlic to save you.
Vampires Must Be aware of GARLIC, HUNTERS AND THEIR STAKES, AND SUNLIGHT.
I belive there are no such thing as vampires. But if there were then anything with out garlic in.
Maybe because they believe in vampires and vampires are like alergic or dont like garlic. something like that.
Apparently garlic.
No.It's a mith.
Vampires are allergic to it xD
