How to Become a Vampire in Real Life and Why You Should Think …

If vampires are real, where do they come from? Since we cant possibly explore every cultures explanation for how vampires come about, lets consider the most common Western definition.

While this is up for considerable debate, the consensus opinion is that to become a vampire you must somehow entangle yourself with someone who is already a vampire. However it hashes out, the point is it involves an interaction with a real vampire. You can't make yourself a vampire, or simply decide you are one. You must be chosen.

Some people claim you can be born a vampire, which is a theoretically intriguing idea. This implies that vampires are another race of hominid, which means they must have evolved along a very similar line as humans, and preyed upon humans throughout history. Like vampire bats, they would have evolved to exist on blood instead of solid food.

This is extremely implausible but interesting to ponder. Of course, it eliminates the supernatural aspects of vampire lore.

But by most accounts, the transformation from human to vampire is a supernatural occurrence. This presents several problems, not the least of which is locating an actual, real-life vampire who is able and willing to transform you. (Hint: that weird guy down at the comic book store with the pale skin who says hes a vampire almost definitely is not.)

Certainly, there are a lot of people around today who claim they are true vampires, but take a logical look at this for a moment: if you were really a vampire, how would you live your life?

Would you announce it to everyone? Would you put up a blog telling everyone about it, or brag about it in on social media? Would you tell your schoolmates or your coworkers? Would you tell anyone?

You would be wise to be suspicious of anyone who so boldly claims to be a vampire. A vampire in todays world would have to be among the most careful and secretive of creatures. Were talking about an undead being that may have been around for hundreds of years, a predator of humans that probably has to do some pretty awful things to get what it needs.

Such a creature could only survive by keeping its true nature a secret, and tracking down such a thing would be almost impossible. Thus, going out at night in search of vampires would be pointless.

The odds are against it, but your one hope would be to encounter a vampire by accident. Then what?

The entire notion of becoming a vampire then seems very unlikely to happen.
