Count Basie

Vampires and humans It is very strange how the words vampires and humans have been used in the same sentence for centuries. From the stories of Count Dracula and his three wives, to the Twilight Saga, vampire stories have become famous and like a drug for fans. The story of Vladimir Tod, the teenage vampire, by Heather Brewer is no exception to this. The writer tried to make this book interesting to boys and girls and therefore chose a simple colour scheme, and a simply designed cover to…

I may not be related to vampires, but it is true little things the vampires do help our humanity. It has created believer to keep believing in science fiction. By having the power of the underdog, it has created a new culture, fear, and monsters. Vampire literature has changed dramatically over the centuries. The old vampire is a blood-thirsty, emotionless…

cannoned as “the story that invented the genre.” The archetype for the vampire is most closely resembled to Stoker’s Count Dracula. It is in Dracula that we find the greatest similarities to that of the modern vampire: no reflection in mirrors, transformation to a bat, and the creatures must have an invitation to enter a home. Dracula is horror at its finest; the traits the Count holds are enough to scare me into the wee hours of the morning. I have no idea how Mina Harker, the woman that…

When filming and writing literature began to be popular there has always been an issue with women sexuality. Throughout the years, it has been proven women use their sexuality as a manipulated power to control men and women. In the sense of an alien and monster elements the sexuality encounter of uncontrollable creatures that show an inspiration of its own kind. In Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula, women sexuality reflects a behavior in Victorian England. Women are betrayed which led them to a…

human blood (Beresford); some of these creatures are their own supernatural species while others are revenants, humans who have returned from death. But even the latter have little in common with the graceful, aristocratic and seductive figure that is Count Dracula, the archetypal literary vampire. Although he was not the first of his kind, many scholars agree that no other text shaped the image of the vampire to a greater extent than Bram Stoker's novel. For more than half a decade the term…

There are many examples to prove that Werewolves are way better vampires. For example, did you know that once a werewolf reaches maturity, their aging stops and they enter a state of virtual immortality in which they are free from physical old age and have an infinite lifespan? To prove how I know that werewolves are way better than vampires is because, werewolves travel in packs, while vampires travel alone. They say that if you mess with a wolf, you'll get the pack. This means that if a…
