Description
"I remember everything with an effort. I see it all, as divers see what is going on above them, through a medium, dense, rippling, but transparent. There occurred that night what has confused the picture, and made its colours faint. I was all but assassinated in my bed, wounded here, -she touched her breast, -and never was the same since."If there is one book I would never be without, that is Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla.
It is her, in fact, the character, fictional or not, with whom I have had the most broad identification, her intensity... I dare say no more, preventing a book long comment about how much I love her
Vampires dont glitter.
Re-uploaded, I suddenly felt the need to reinvigorate this piece with what I have learnt since I posted it originaly.

If vampires do not glitter (I know the reference) what do they do?

It depends, Carmilla, Clarimonde and Dracula just weaken, Count Orlock burnt, some folk ones loose their powers during daytime, and some just get hungrier

I've also heard some don't have any problem whatsoever.
Of course you've also got some vampires that use artifacts such as in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Folclore is huge, fiction is even wider, there is no limitations to what you can make a vampire to be.

Universal owns the "Bela Lugossi" style Dracula, plus the Van Hellsing version of Dracula and The Brides, other than that, the concept is so huge and flexible that you can put vampires anywhere, anyhow and get out with it.
One of the most personalizable critters in fiction
