Do vampires really exist?

Yes. Real life vampires do exist but they are very different from the ones we’re used to seeing on film and in books. There are many online communities (and offline ones too) devoted to supporting people who believe they are real vampires. 

These real vampires usually live a more goth-friendly lifestyle and try to adopt vampire culture into their lives (i.e. perhaps they will sleep in a wooden coffin). Some real life vampires do drink blood, but they do not need it as sustenance. They drink blood for the powerful "energizing" effect it has. Other real life vampires refrain from blood and instead feed on other people’s energy or "aura." Though these real life vampires might be light-sensitive, they won’t burn up in the sun. They also are not immortal.

A brief discussion of the human digestive system and then the probable vampire population given an exponential growth rate should explain why vampires are not possible. 2. The human body is not designed to process large amounts of blood for nutrition. There is not enough protein, carbohydrates, and fats present in blood to maintain a complex creature such as Homo Sapiens or any theorized offshoot mutations. When a human ingests food it is first broken up by chewing, then churned up in the stomach with digestive juices to form a bolus called chyme. It then passes into the small intestine where it mixes with bile salts which continue breaking it down on a molecular basis, mostly affecting fats at this point. The broken down nutrients pass through the wa
