Vampires are legendary creatures and do not exist in the real world. Vampire BATS, however, are smaller than a teacup and their only diet is blood. Their usual victims are sleeping cattle and horses.

These tiny bats never remove enough blood to harm their victims but the bites can cause infections and disease if not treated by a doctor.

"...except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened." (Matt.24:22)
