I wonder..... could he be a real vampire? What better place to hide than directly in the public's eye. NO one would believe it....

hmmmm

He's completely insane. Cjecked him out personally, just a total wacko. We do need to keep an eye on the next governer of Michigan though, I think he's a Soul Eater...

I must say this is quite odd. Why do humans think the undead are so attractive that they wish to emulate them? I think this man might be a little 'off' but it might be worth a closer look.

Five words-- Bram Stoker and Anne Rice. These two authors have done much to romanticize and sexualize the image of the vampire. Then there's the fact that a lot of people have no identity of their own, so they latch onto whatever strikes their fancy and build their self-image from that. It's most visible in pop culture, but it exists in all corners of society.

Its a shame that the truth is something much more... horrific.

The term 'vampire' has many meanings.
Sadly, 'a living being who drinks blood' is one of them.
