Paul Barber says it best in Vampires, Burial, and Death: Folklore and Reality (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1988):

If a typical vampire of folklore, not fiction, were to come to your house this Halloween, you might open the door to encounter a plump Slavic fellow with long fingernails and a stubbly beard, his mouth and left eye open, his face ruddy and swollen. He wears informal attire-in fact, a linen shroud-and he looks for all the world like a disheveled peasant (2).

How would a vampire describe blood?

pale scary any color eyes they have sharp teeth they like sunlight.

In the midst of the field, stood a tall shadow-like figure. The skin of this beautiful creature was as pale as snow, the lips were as red as blood, the eyes were fierce with a hint of crimson hidden behind those chocolate brown eyes. Underneath those heart-melting eyes were purple bruises, like he could need a good nights sleep. His dark auburn spiked hair danced in the breeze as the sun shone down onto his perfect features, revealing a beautiful teenage boy. He looked like a tribute for a Greek God, standing there motionless and keeping his distance between the other humans. He walked forward, he's slender body purchased some muscles in his arms and biceps. He had a strong jawline and high cheekbones. His features were impossibly beautiful, everything about his appearance was unbelievable, yet unconditional.

That's the best I can do x

Where do vampires go when they die?

Twilight answer: It depends. If you are under Edward's point of view, they go nowhere. If you think like Carlisle, they go the same place as humans. When they are ripped up and burnt, well, they are the ashes so where ever the ashes go then so do they.

Other answer:

I have no idea.

the other answer is hell. Vampires are usually demon-possessed beings. They go back where they came from.

Summary of the danger vampire trail?

This is the 50th book in the original Hardy Boys Mystery Series which ran from 1927 to 1979 and was, along with the Nancy Drew, Tom Swift and Bobbsey Twins series, part of the Stratemeyer Syndicate. Like "Carolyn Keene" of the Nancy Drew series, "Franklin W. Dixon" is a pen name used by several different people over time. The usual modus operandi was for the contracted author to write the book according to an outline provided by the Syndicate. The present book was written by Andrew Svenson and published in 1971.*

The series features brothers Frank and Joe Hardy, 18 and 17 years old respectively, whose father, Fenton Hardy, is a former New York City police officer and world-renowned detective. With their friends, chubby Chet Morton and sometimes lanky Biff Hooper, Phil Cohen, Tony Prito and Jerry Gilroy, Frank and Joe solve mysteries involving smugglers, counterfeiters and others who don't contribute productively to society at large in Bayport, a port town somewhere on the Eastern U.S. seaboard.

****

Fenton enlists the boys' help in cracking a scam involving counterfeit Magnacard swindles. The cards are generally issued to high-income people only. Purchases made with the counterfeit cards seem to involve a lot of sporting goods-like the tent camper that Chet has just purchased at a steep discount with all his hard-earned savings. Part of the scam is to sell big ticket items to unsuspecting marks before the merchants realize they've been taken. Immediately one of the bad'uns is identified as Archibald "Whip" Lasher, a con man with a penchant for the outdoors. (Hard to read that name and not be reminded of the late poet Archibald MacLeish, though I see no connection other than the similarity in names).

The boys had been talking about going camping, anyway, and Fenton suggests they take the opportunity to visit public campsites to track down outdoors men/con men on their way west. Before they leave, they ask their mother if there is anything they can bring back for her. She answers that she'd like a sapphire, her birthstone.

Along for the trip with the brothers are Chet-who made a deal with the merchant for the hot tent trailer-Biff Hooper and Biff's bloodhound, Sherlock. Setbacks dog... er, the boys experience vexations and delays from the start, including getting stopped for hauling a stolen tent trailer, camping in a farmer's field without his permission, and getting four flats overnight on their convertible where a practical joker saw fit to remove the valve cores. (How did the guys sleep through that?)

During a talent show at a public campground, Joe plays a guitar, Biff the harmonica and Chet a jews' harp, something he's just taken up. A guy on a dirt bike named "Vampire Trail" apparently takes exception to their performance, rushes the little amphitheater and ends up smashing Joe's guitar. The next day, the group traces the rider, named "Juice" apparently for his orange soda habit, to his campsite. Joe sees a guitar he'll take until his is replaced. "Go ahead," Juice warns them, "but Fingers won't like it."

A shuffle later ensues between our heroes and Juice and his two friends, in which the second guitar is smashed, revealing rough sapphires glued within its body. If the reader needed anymore proof that Juice and his buddies are crooks, here it is. But how are they tied up with the Magnacard scam?

In addition to being the name of Juice's bike, "Vampire Trail" is also a trail off a campground in the Colorado Rockies where it's said that people have been attacked by vampire bats. Even Joe comes away one night with a welt on his neck. But vampire bats only live in Central and South America, right? As any veteran watcher of "Scooby Doo" cartoons will tell you, this must mean that some bad'uns don't want the public to know what's going on up on Vampire Trail.

While the plot is extremely unlikely, the road trip aspect is rather fun. The boys meet different people on the way and in the campsites, most of whom are average Joes. One character that was rather entertaining, if out of place, was a guy who held court in a trailer with a psychedelic paint job and called himself Prince Cuthbert. He claimed to be descendant of King Arthur and dressed in royal robes and a crown.

As silly and as unlikely as the plot of the book is, it was entertaining and fun simply by virtue of the road trip and the camping, something I enjoy in real life, even without Chet as cook. For this, I will recommend it

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! :-)
