Vampire films

Vampire films

Vampires are mythical creatures that seem to have always existed in various folklores. However, the vampire concept as we know it really took off with “Dracula”, the 1897’s novel from Bram Stoker. Vampires in horror films are invariably undead creatures thirsty for blood and vulnerable to sunlight. Additional rules then differs slightly depending on the movie: contagious when biting, allergic to garlic, sensitive to crosses or holy water, killed by a stake in the heart, cannot enter without being invited, etc.
