An elemental Vampire is much like a psychic vampire in the way that they do not actually drink blood. In the same way a psychic vampire feeds on the energy of people around them, an elemental vampire feeds on the energy of the elements around them.

Many say they can feed from everyday element encounters such as trees and animals. Others say they can only feed from greater sources or absorb more energy from them. A greater elemental source is usually considered a storm, a sea and plant and animal life force outside of a city.

Many non vampires say they can feel elemental energy, particularly during a thunderstorm. Well it is exactly that energy an elemental vampire feeds on. Some do it passively simply by being near elemental energies while others need to focus on the energy and proactively feed.

Elemental vampires report feeling weaker when not around a source of elemental energy to feed on but ordinary food can sustain although without an elemental source as well the vampire power can diminish temporarily.

Elemental feeding shows no sign of damage on plants or animals, no affect on storm or weather. Although it is worth noting some vampires report their ability to alter weather conditions.

Elsewhere on the are vampires real site we’ve looked at what real vampires do and don’t do. There are different types of vampires and different beliefs within the vampire community but I can tell you – none of them sparkle in the sunlight unless you throw glitter at them.

There have been a load of media productions both the big and small screens as well as print. I personally watch some of them and enjoy the story line and characters but nobody should ever base their decision over real vampires on them.

As I always say, when you ask are vampires real or not? The answer is yes, but probably not as you think. Vampires are here, vampires are real and it could be anyone you know. I don’t mean your milkman is going to lunge for your throat or you should throw garlic (by the way i love garlic) through your neighbors letter box. I mean real vampires and vampirism is a way of life and probably nothing like you think it is.

Real vampires fit into several different categories the more common of which are sanguine vampires, psychic vampires and lifestyle vampires. For a better understanding of each check out our individual articles and videos elsewhere on the site.

If you’re interested in real vampires and trying to find out are vampires real then do so for the right reasons and do so with an open mind.

A cheaper version of making your own synthetic fangs

The first thing people want to know when they ask are vampires real is how (and if) they can spot a real vampire walking down the street. What they do not realise is the answer to this can vary from vampire to vampire.

Some real vampires will dress in heavily gothic clothes and display their vampire fangs. Some will be very open about it and more than happy to discuss it with anyone while others will be tight lipped. On the flip side, some vampires will be next to impossible to spot. Vampires can (and often do) dress the same way as me or you. They may be wearing a plain tshirt or a formal suit.

So, in short, there is no real way to spot a real vampire on the street unless they want you to know. Some vampires choose to display it with pride while others keep it between friends and family. So if you want to know are vampires real? That’s fine. We have all the information you need. If, however, you want to know how to spot a real vampire in the middle of the street? Well you’re out of luck I’m afraid.
