Vampire Secrets
Vampire Secrets is a 2006 docudrama about the mythology and lifestyle of vampires, produced by Indigo Films for the History Channel, and narrated by Corey Burton.
The documentary features the history of vampires from Indian (Hindu goddess Kali), Greek, and Chinese origins, and references to the Bible and ancient Mesopotamia.
At the mention of the word "vampire," images of bloody fangs, dark capes, and a man with a hideous, spooky laugh immediately come to mind.
These conventional images, born from countless vampire films over the years, are most commonly associated with Irish writer Bram Stoker and his iconic 1897 novel Dracula.
However, despite the popularity and influence of this celebrated nineteenth-century tome, the vampire myth dates back more than 1,000 years, long before Stoker ever put pen to paper.
In this fascinating journey through time, History® uncovers the ancient folkloric origins of blood-craving creatures from beyond the grave.
Learn how the vampire myth is strongly rooted in Eastern European lore, but how it has also played a prominent role in the ancient cultures of Greece and China.
From wooden stakes to garlic apotropes to ancient burial rituals, Vampire Secrets explores how this long-standing myth has been interpreted by different cultures around the world.
Of course they are real, it's so blatantly obvious, Vlad the Impailer, known as Vlad Dracul, is the defacto queen mother's (deceased) great, great, great, great, great Grandfather!, this is FACT. Movies about real life Vampires? They are telling ou, and even showing you!!, even playing the part's of their 'ahem', brethren, hahahahaha, aint that right 'Brother's? Oh, look, I dont have a brother, phew !!! At birth, I bet you had a blood sample taken from the SOUL of your feet. When eventually the blood became corrupted, they made a plea for more that I'd like to point out:
When the current virus came out, it was called Corona Virus. Yeah, conspiracies everywhere regarding that matter, but how many thought of this? There is something FISHY going on. At the end of the age of 'Pisces' - Fish symbol, apparently a chinese man eat's raw fish. AT the end of the age of pisces, the fishy people are in abundance, so much so that mere mortal's are in peril, the balance clearly outweighed by the Vampire race of serpent's, currently ruling the world. Then this chinese man eat's a deep fried dried Vampire bat, yes, this species of bat EXIST. On the 3rd of Jan 2020, a man was attacked a bro called beefy, the bro unaware that his victim has a dangerous mind. The victim goes to sleep asking himself, how could he defeat this invisible army of ONE, in desperation. As he drift's off to sleep, he think's Vampire Virus, his dream see's him holding his front door closed, keeping the vampires from his door. . The question is, did he predict the man who had it in china, or did the man in china do his bidding.? The reason the virus is called the Corona virus, and why it's name was quickly hushed up by the english, is because Vlad Dracul is Vlad the impailer is the queen of england's great great great great great grandad! Yup, here in the uk, it is illegal to call covid-19 the Corona Virus. There's more to the truth in this post than you think!
Is vampire is real and when they found?There is any movie about real life story of vampire?
They use all this stuff to cover up vampires the government are pros at keeping things from the public so they use shit like this.
the mayans did not have "blood rituals" it was about the human heart beating outside of the body, one of many other references that are spun to support the idea of vampires that they say never existed in a true form anyway. Vlad "dracula" (please... :(....)
this docu is garbage.
:(
*for emphasis.
This isnt so much a documentary as a comedy. The fact that true vampires have never existed is nothing I needed a documentary to tell me. Fine for a bit of a laugh and some interesting facts but its overall pretty dumb, that guy with his little monocle in the skulls eye takes the cake
the video wont play for me...bummer!
vampire where they live and where they found
Vlad's real story is far more interesting then this vampire nonsense, he was a Romanian born into the order of the dragon whose father gave him to the Turks as a peace treaty, his father then broke the treaty but instead of the Turks killing him they raised him, anyway long story short he returned to Romania and defended it against the Turks who he ditched and hated all along, it's Romanian folk law that there was a golden cup in the poor villages but no peasant would dare to steal it, there was no crime. apart from the mass killings. Hollywood would rather make movies about boxing robots. unbelievable,
That countess was hideous, how did she expect to preserve beauty if she was ugly?
total load of bs
New York Vampires thats too damn funny. Little hedonistic punks in complete delusional fantasy mode.
What's wrong with psychic vampires and hippies? Oh my, you are judgemental!
@ Achems,
Me jealous ? You mean the Queen of the Nile river Of whom love floweth thru her veins ? Be jealous ?, Ha! It would take more than a barbaric slave under my feet to be Jealous.Why the world bows down to me as I command ! Why would I be Jealous of anything or anyone?
Go ahead indulge in your Rotted aged blood bathes and feast on dead blood.Meat rotting in the grave is what you get.Hardly a thing to be Jealous of :-)
@Connie:
My, you are jealous! Ha,Ha, nice try by the way. Love women fighting over me (LOL)
@ Achems Ok I changed my mind. perhaps I do like this Doc afterall and want to suck somebodies blood !
Good thing you are too old ! Bald, fat ! and toothless or else I would be jealous already :-)
@pixiechick:
Thank you very much for that kind compliment.
I try to keep my comments as toned down as possible though,(cough,cough), thousands of people on this great site.
Love your name by the way!
The discussions in here are 100% better than the doc LOL. @Achems Razor: you always have evilly intelligent things to add, and there is a great deal that hints to me that you are well-educated (whether through school or self-taught) on a great variety of subjects and have obviously held an interesting job or two. I enjoy reading your comments thoroughly, and find myself looking forward to reading them each time I look for a new doc. Thanks for the insight and the giggles!
If I were James Spalding my ass would have been outta there. I wouldn't have walked back to the town that tried to kill me. What an idiot.
Simon TheSorcerer, yes, Bathory was Hungarian, but since when Vlad Tepes was Hungarian? He was 100% Romanian. Unless you discovered different roots, which i doubt.
@ duck
Oopppsyyyy =))
Yeah we do have those, they do suck us dry, but not our blood.
It's our money =))
@ Anonymus
Are you saying there are no lawyers, bankers, and politicians in Romania... Wow, you are vampire free............
Oh god...Just Drop it......
I'm Romanian, and I can tell you, we have no vampires here.
Vlad Dracula is not accurate.
Vlad Dracul he was called actually.And he was the father of Vlad Tepes, a Transilvanian ruler in the medieval period.
Vlad Tepes actually was a terrible man in eyes of most because he would give severe punishments for even the smallest of crimes.
Also the Turkish people were afraid of him because each time they sent armies against him, he would defeat them easily and usually the generals were impaled horrifically and displayed by Vlad's Castle as a reminder.
On a side note, Bram Stoker based his novel loosely around the character of Vlad Dracul's Son.
And seriously, in Romania for lots of people at the countryside, the dark ages seem to still linger they believe in dead coming back to life and s@$%. Yeah kinda like a vampire but they call it Strigoi.
It's natural for a country that was kept under USSR rule until 1989 to still have fears like this.I mean I can litterally take you guys by the hand and show you.It will blow your mind how superstitious they sill are about stuff like this.
Question...
Would a cannibal eat Soylent Green?
Actually, there are true vampires scouring the world today...
They are called politicians, lawyers, and bankers.......
@Charles B:
And even as this doc. suggests, eating the flesh and drinking the blood of "Christ" is vampirism and cannibalistic!!
So there you have it!
