I don’t think being a fantasy myth, it is all that different from any of them, except that the central tenet of the Christian gospel, is that Jesus shed His blood for our sins, that by “eating his flesh and drinking His blood”( that is personal participation in His sacrafice for us, by faith), we recieve the gift of eternal Life.The vampire myth also promises a kind of a state of immortality, and that by drinking other people’s blood. it struck me that Vampirism is an obscene parody of the Christian gospel of blood atonement.
