I believe in "never say never". How can we ever be 100 per cent sure that vampires (or similar creatures) are purely fictitious until we have used sonar and put up cameras that work 24/7 in every part of every place that exists, especially unexplored places (e.g other planets that we may not even know exist yet)?

Yes, there may well be tests that can pick up genes before a baby is born, but would they necessarily be able to pick up EVERY single gene? Also, would they really be available in an undiscovered/unexplored place?

Yes, a vampire who attacks and turns a person every week or so is a bit unrealistic, to say the least, but would they necessarily have to attack and turn that many people? Could they not be killing the people that they drink from and hiding the bodies? The vampires in the movie "Cirque du Freak" do not turn people just by drinking from them; they have to actually exchange blood with them to do this. They do not kill the people either; they just drink a bit of blood from them. The worst thing that would ever be likely to happen to one of their victims is that they end up a bit sick and have to take a few days off work, just like they might do if they had the flu. People do get sick due to unknown causes still, don't they?

The human body may not be designed to process large amounts of blood, but are vampires necessarily human? If they are human, could they not be like a different race with bodies that differ from those of humans? For all we know, they could even be aliens (or just connected to aliens somehow). A person who cannot digest food may well be unable to digest blood as well, but who's to say that vampires necessarily cannot digest their own food? Although they still need blood in order to survive, the ones on "The Vampire Diaries" can actually digest food, if I remember correctly.

Some people may say that the existence of vampires is impossible because of the fact that they do not need to urinate or defecate. Who's to say that do not need to do this? They maybe undead, but this does not necessarily mean "completely dead", does it? They could have "died" a long time and then risen up, and this is if the whole "undead" thing is even true. If there is life in them, would this not mean that they could still urinate and defecate?

Psychic vampires are definitely real. Watch the documentary "Vampire Secrets". You can probably get it very easily on Amazon. This should give you more detail about them and about how they are definitely not fake.

Please be warned that "Vampire Secrets" features one incredibly scary figure who looks a little bit like a KKK member and could have even been a suspect for Susan Walsh's disappearance (he may also have actually killed somebody) and it includes graphic images and showing of what is obviously fake blood. Stories about blood coming from various parts of corpses and one incredibly freaky story about a disappearing dead body (demon lover) also featured on this one. There is also plenty of implied violence, one slightly graphic scene of an actor playing Rod Ferrell beating two people before drinking/appearing to drink what, again, is obviously fake blood. Rod Ferrell himself does actually feature on it, but is restrained and there is no blood, gore or visual violence in those clips. There is also plenty of implied violence and sex as well as a bit of implied sex. This documentary is absolutely NOT for anyone aged under 16 at the youngest.

I am not a vampire but, if I ever saw one that was about to be attacked by a hunter, as a vampire lover, I would at least try to save them. I know that, if they do exist, a lot of vampires would probably be of the type that would only ever kill when absolutely necessary. They may well need to feed off of others in order to keep their lives, whether they be undead or not, or just to survive life-threatening situations.
The vampire in the movie "Dark Shadows" was certainly not purely evil. He did kill a few people, but this was probably out of thirst, not out of brutality. He also saved a young girl from death by falling from a cliff.

In the children's film "The Little Vampire", the main human character is saved by at least one vampire on two occasions; once from being hit by a truck and then again after he had been locked up in a coffin.
Even old legends are not without good vampires. Although the idea of the Stregoni Benefici was used for the "Twilight" series, the legend did exist beforehand. These are good vampires that are archenemies with the evil ones. They also help sick people as well.
Watch the documentary "Vampire Secrets". On that one, they managed to use technology to prove that this one lady was definitely a psychic vampire (one that feeds off of the mental energy of others, as opposed to their blood). If she were really all that evil, would she not have been too dangerous to feature on the programme without being restrained? She was not restrained at any point in the documentary, by the way.

Even the producers of said documentary actually talk about the rise of the sexy, sympathetic vampires in fiction. Some of the people featured on that programme were actually true vampire experts, by the way.

Before we start bashing them for what they have supposedly done to humans, think about what humans have done to them. Throughout the years, according to movies, legends, books and other stories, humans have used Holy water to burn vampires, as well as tricking them and/or somehow keeping them in the sun, locking them in coffins and allowing them to suffocate, staking them through the heart and otherwise torturing, maiming and killing them. Think about it this way. You are a vampire. You are of the type that have vampiric traits in your appearance, such as pale skin and red eyes. You cannot go into any public place without experiencing persecution and having everyone else there afraid of you. You want to make friends, or even just ask someone something, but you cannot get near anyone without them backing away, insulting you and trying to ward you off, even though you have no intention of harming them. They just think that, because you are a vampire, you want to kill them. All you want to do is just ask them something or befriend them, and/or mind your own business, but you cannot do this because are so feared and persecuted. Everyone thinks that you just want to drain their blood, but you don't.

There are now loads of alternatives in which vampires can use to get the blood that they need to drink. Vampires can now drink fake blood, blood banks, animal blood* and even human blood that they will have collected or had collected from people, without killing them. Some vampires have even been known to heal any cut that they make after they have fed from the person. The person would probably then only get ill to the same extent as if they had the flu after that. They may even ask the person first before they feed and/or have a willing donor, if they are able to cope with their blood supply coming from just one person and not being very varied.
Just like with everything else, if they do exist, vampires could be friendly, peace-loving creatures as well. There is good and bad in everything.

* I do not approve of the needless harm or the unnecessary killing of animals. However, I do not hate anyone, vampire or non-vampire, for killing animals when they must do so in order to survive...

Besides, members of the vampyre subculture are definitely real, and sanguinarian people and/or people with blood/energy deficiencies are almost certainly real. Ask any of them about it and, if they are being honest, kind and they want to tell you about it, they will (most likely) tell you that prejudice and/or discrimination against them is real, and that they would like people to accept them, and not be unkind or discriminate against them in any way because of their lifestyle/needs/beliefs/state of being...

We, the Undersigned, ask that laws be brought in to protect vampyres, sanguinarians, people with blood and energy deficiencies, vampires and all other supernatural beings from needless, wanton discrimination, cruelty and killing.

We also ask that laws be brought in to protect supernatural beings from being needlessly exorcised against their will.
