QUÉ SIGNIFICA VAMPIRE EN INGLÉS

Vampiro

Vampire

Los vampiros son seres míticos que subsisten al alimentarse de la esencia vital de las criaturas vivientes. En los cuentos folklóricos, los vampiros no muertos a menudo visitaban seres queridos y causaban travesuras o muertes en los barrios que habitaban cuando estaban vivos. Llevaban sudarios y se describían a menudo como hinchados y de ruddy o el rostro oscuro, marcadamente diferente del vampiro magro, pálido de hoy que fecha a partir de los 1800s tempranos. Aunque las entidades vampíricas han sido registradas en la mayoría de las culturas, el término vampiro no fue popularizado hasta principios del siglo XVIII, después de una afluencia de supersticiones vampíricas hacia Europa Occidental desde áreas donde las leyendas de vampiros eran frecuentes, como los Balcanes y Europa Oriental, Eran también conocidos por diversos nombres, tales como vrykolakas en Grecia y strigoi en Rumania. Este aumento en el nivel de la superstición vampírica en Europa llevó a lo que sólo se puede llamar histeria en masa y en algunos casos resultó en los cadáveres en realidad se estaca y las personas acusadas de vampirismo.

Vampires are mythical beings who subsist by feeding on the life essence of living creatures. In folkloric tales, undead vampires often visited loved ones and caused mischief or deaths in the neighbourhoods they inhabited when they were alive. They wore shrouds and were often described as bloated and of ruddy or dark countenance, markedly different from today's gaunt, pale vampire which dates from the early 1800s. Although vampiric entities have been recorded in most cultures, the term vampire was not popularised until the early 18th century, after an influx of vampire superstition into Western Europe from areas where vampire legends were frequent, such as the Balkans and Eastern Europe, although local variants were also known by different names, such as vrykolakas in Greece and strigoi in Romania. This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to what can only be called mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses actually being staked and people being accused of vampirism.

My favorite thing about playing a vampire is the stunts. It's just a new, fun thing to do. Especially as a girl, being able to be all dolled up in heels and little outfits and be able to kick boys' butts, I think it's a really fun, make-believe world to play.

I think vampires are different from human beings, but they're sentenced to eternity on this planet. They have the same confusion about love and permanence, integrity, and denial. These qualities really are the same in vampire characters as in humans. I think they're universal themes.
