How To Become a Vampire
I was looking at some search stats and noticed that this question (how to become a vampire?) was more common than you might expect. Every day, nearly 100 people were looking for a way to join the ranks of the stylish undead. “An interesting topic for a little tutorial”, I thought. Hence this post.
It seems the jury’s still out on how, exactly, vampires are created. Some sources cite ancient beliefs (mostly useless superstition), some insist on the popular bitten-by-vampire myth, and some claim that you simply can’t “become” a vampire if you’ve been born human. Maybe there’s no single way. So, instead of focusing on any of the aforementioned approaches, I’ll describe three common vampiric features that you can attain without any supernatural help.
Hypnotism (AKA Mesmerism)
“True” vampires have it easy – some mind-control skills are supposedly included in the whole dark revenant package, along with good looks and sharp teeth. But don’t despair, … wait, no, despair is cool. Ahem. As I was saying, hypnosis and neuro-linguistic programming are well within the reach of mere mortals, so you are free to learn and use it – even if your heart is still beating. Head over to Google or Amazon.com
To get an (optimistic) idea of what you might achieve, take a look at Derren Brown. He’s done some very impressive things (videos).
Night Vision
Excellent low-light vision is something I’ve always wanted. You can improve your night vision by using a few tricks, and science might eventually figure something out.
The most promising idea I discovered is NightWalking. The website has a heavy slant towards philosophy/spirituality that reminds me vaguely of Carlos Castaneda, but it also contains a detailed guide on improving your peripheral vision. As you might already know, in a situation when there’s very little light, peripheral vision is much more effective than central vision. Better peripheral vision = better night vision, so this is definitely something worth trying.
Dark and Mysterious
The “dark” part won’t be a problem – just pick something from the wide range of goth stuff available. Maybe invest in coloured contact lenses and/or appropriate makeup.
As for being mysterious, well… * nods and smiles knowingly *
Ah, okay, I’ll be more verbose. There’s a bunch of lame tutorials about “how to be mysterious” on the web, but they’re generally a crazy mix of the somewhat useful and the completely ridiculous. In my opinion the coveted “aura of mysteriousness” is a pinch of secrecy + a certain form of inner confidence. And it’s not the kind of confidence that lets you approach strangers and sing on stage. I’m talking about the kind that frees you from seeking external validation of your thoughts, actions and existence. This is something that very few people have, but it can be learned. Think.
Miscellaneous Thoughts
I suspect most people in the “how to become a vampire” crowd are looking for a shortcut to becoming cool (is that a pun?). That is understandable. My main reservation about this is that it’s an unlikely shortcut — and that most wanna-be’s don’t really understand what they’re asking for when they say “I want to be a vampire!”.
Personally, I consider the concept of blood-craving bona-fide vampires unrealistic. I haven’t seen any reasonable biological explanations for it, and the idea that “it’s magic!” doesn’t do it for me on this overall low-magic planet. Psychic vampirism is a different thing entirely, but there’s generally nothing glamorous about being unable to sustain your existence without becoming a (possibly unknowing) parasite. Okay, parasitism might not be the only way, but I won’t discuss that here.
Hey, this is probably the weirdest post on this site (so far) 
Hey there, i have been following these posts for quite a long time and I’m very fond of vampires and Dhampir… I have been searching for REAL LIFE VAMPIRES for quite a while but unfortunately the country(Ile de France; Mauritius) where I live in, I don’t think there is any vampire.. So does that mean, there’s no chance of turning me into a Vampire??.. This desire of mine keeps increasing day by day… Is there anyone who can help me?

Common Symptoms of Vampirism
Note: this is not to be used as a checklist of any sort. A person can have most of these traits and still not be a vampire. Vice versa a person can have none of these traits and still be a vampire.
-Being more Nocternal
-Having better than normal night vision
-Sensitivity to bright lights and UV lights
-Blood cravings and blood lust
-Heightened physical abilities and senses. (No super strength, but some vampires can be stronger and faster than normal.)
-Acute hearing, smell, and touch
-Duel-Personality when blood cravings go on for too long.
-Increased psychic abilities
-Commonly drawn to the vampire of fiction and myth.
-Migraines and constant headaches
-Moodswings
-Sense of being seperate from everyone else, a sense of not being normal
-Above average intellegence
-Can have ADD and ADHD
These are some of the most common symptoms of psychic and sanguin vampirism. The primary symptom all vampires feel is the craving for blood. You do not need to have all these symptoms to be a vampire, only the craving for blood determines vampirism. (Even psi-vamps crave blood without knowing it, but it does not substain them.) It is always important to check with a doctor if you have any of these symptoms before claiming to be a vampire.

-no offence for anything i say.that is if any1 feel offended by it…-

the eyesight / hearing and stuffs will be better?
Sorry i din’t post for a while. Hey guys xD Brothers and sisters (and the odd human poster) Hi to all xD
mandy- i am 27. will be 28 in july.
tellmesomething- iam not odd….just curious by nature. i’ve always had these questions, and i have found a place maybe someone can answer.
the only thing anyone has ever told me was to have someone bite me….i just want to know, either way. i’m mature enough to know what would happen if someone did…and mature enough to know if i do or not. so i guess i just want to know what is true and what isn’t. i don’t want to think i know something about your lifestyles and then come to find out they’re all lies….or hollywood stories…so if someone could help me, i’d sure appreciate it.
oh… i see.. so 27.. no offence… but always.. adults… teen adults are more of like… “vampires dont exist.. its just imagination, its not real.. blah blah”
thats what i always hear from the adults.. or teen adults.. so when i see that you mention that you were married.. i was wondering if you were the same age as my friend.. young but married..married for love not for strange reasons. and happy.. ><”
i did marry for love, and i do believe in the unknown. just because it seems fantasy doesn’t mean fantasy isn’t a part of the real world. ya know?
MANDY: wat i meant by that is most teens think that everything will b fine and that bing a vampire is like in twilight but really it’s not like that it is so hard and I don’t think people want to be a monster like me.Yes it is possible to drink blood with out killing the person but it is really hard to stop because of the thurst.
Shellbe I don’t think you want to be a monster its more complicated then you think
sooooooooo vampiredude..ur gna change me?
Ya ill change you.
yea.. i know that fantasy wasnt a part of real world.. but the impossible still can happen.. that’s what i believe =]
i serious dont really think that its as what twilight show vampires to be.
but i am absolutely serious that i wanna be a vampire.
i dont am not sure if any1 would really change me..><
i dont know and am not sure if any1 would really change me ><” *
where?..when?

I think that you people should really think about asking us to change you.
It can ruin your life.
And you may can kill the ones you love.

Just think twice.

Hmm, I seem to be spamming alot at the moment. I might as well tell you my story.
I am in Australia, and where I live there is a small coven of 3. We all go to the same school, making it alot easier. None of us really fit in with the others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was the second to join the coven in my town. I was walking the streets on new years 06, there were many people about, and I was originally with my siblings, who were older than me at the time. I decided to walk home, knowing that it was only 1 block away. I went down the lane near my house. I then saw a small figure kneeling down in the gutter, so I went to investigate. I shouldn’t have. As I came into view of the figure, I automatically recognised who it was. The figure was of a male from my school, three years older. He was leaned over a large dog, just finishing it off. I screamed at the sight. He came closer, and held his hand over my mouth, he pushed me down, and bit down into my arm. I couldn’t scream, his hold was too strong. I remember waking up 3 days later, I was in a small room in a house, it wasn’t my house. After one hour, Nicoloas came in. He explained what had happened, and that he was sorry. He helped me through it all.
~~~~
It was of an advantage to me that my parents were in England for 3 weeks when it happened, and that my siblings wouldn’t have cared why I didn’t turn up home.
