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) 😉

I presume not.
If it was to be like that how many vampires do you suppose there were to be.
I presume you could of inherited a disease from thee dog,
On which can kill you sudden soul.
If i were to be mortal and had been bittin by thee dog i would first go to medicall deduction to check if thee had inherited thee disease!
Id say you’re shadowing.
Your going away for ever!
If you do not seek medical care then thee will ruin your soul and shrivel your familys life!
You will die.

I’m interested in becoming a vampire or at least half vampire can anyone help me?
something is not right.
something has just changed.
i don’t know but maybe i am changing.
my eyes have changed colour.
completely white now.
the sun was shining today.
and it physically hurt me.
I have cravings for blood and i frequentally dream about one person, mainly drinking thier blood but also draining thier energy, like i can actually see it, what does that mean?
Well i was wondering if wanting to change for no not self change but change in the world and everyone else. Would that be immorale for a vampire to do. Im sorry everyone for being off the charts for a while i was busy up in some mountains doing research with friends of mine. but still i thought this out and i have nothing to loose apparently i was a mistake lol oh well guess you cant change the course of faith.
After finding this site by pure chance, it’s funny how many of you desire to become a vampire.
Don’t get me wrong, it would be a very interesting experience.
I’ve had my curiosity and I still wonder.
But just because you beg, doesn’t mean you’ll be turned.
And you might fit the physical description. It doesn’t mean you’re some secret vampire and you just didn’t know it yet.
I have extremely dark brown hair and my eye color frequently changes from deep, deep brown to black. And what do you know, my skin tone is almost pure white. Did I mention I enjoy the taste of blood?
I fit the “general” description.
But I know I’m human. I may be different in my physical appearance and preference for taste, but I’m still human.
Sure, if it was possible to change, I’d probably more than welcome it.
I believe anything is possible.
However.
If you’re meant to become a vampire, it’ll happen.
If not, live the life you have now to its fullest.
Be happy with what you have.
Becoming an Akara is like democricising your family on which has a soul life of attendance and pure trust.
Belive me upon your grave stone.
I’ve met 3 akara friends and next moon i will be going to visit them and hopefully they will show me their inner spirit!
Do you belive in saiton. I belive in nothing.
What ever was to be is now lost.
I’ve lost everything i ever loved and everything i ever adored.
But tell me this, Why do you want to loose The key?
I have a theory if anyone wants to hear it contact me on either myspace or my gmail account
