| Become a Vampire : The Myth Method.
Method 1: Have a predisposition to Vampirism.
Vampirism may occur if you have been subject to one or more of the following:
- You were conceived on a 'holy' day.
- During pregnancy your mother was stared at by a vampire or simply did not consume enough salt in her diet.
- You recieved a curse either in the womb or at birth.
- You were either weaned too early or were breastfed AFTER being weaned onto solid food.
- You were born at specific times of the year eg. new moon or a holy day. (I was born on a Sunday - aaaaah!)
- You were born with more hair than usual (I had a lot of black hair on my head), a red, distinctive birthmark (tiny red star on my left upper thigh hehe), or with two hearts.
- You were born with a third nipple (ugh!), teeth or a red caul.
- You are the seventh son of a seventh son.
- You die at birth without having been baptised.
Method 2: Commit sinful/bad actions during your lifetime.
If you have done any of the following, folklore has it that you will transform into a vampire after death:
- Be a Werewolf.
- Eat sheep that has been killed by a wolf.
- Commit suicide. (NOT recommended)
- Steal the ropes used to lower peoples coffins into the grave. (Real 'Huck Finn' stuff hehe)
- Take part in acts of witchcraft or sorcery.
- Be a priest and take Mass whilst being in a 'state of mortal sin'.
- Be a prostitute, murderer, thief etc and/or generally lead a thoroughly immoral lifestyle.
Method 3: Return as a vampire through no fault of your own.
If any of these happen to you at point of death or after burial you'll certainly be back to wreak revenge:
- Suffer death-by-drowning. (NOT by chocolate)
- Die a violent death or be murdered.
- If murdered, have noone take revenge for your untimely death.
- Have another vampire kill you.
- Get your brother to sleepwalk.
- Have someone cast a shadow over your corpse.
- Arrange for a family cat or bird to jump/fly over your corpse.
- Have someone wave a candle over your corpse.
- Have wind from the Russian Steppes blow over your dead body (This could be tricky, unless you are already Russian).
- Be buried face up in your grave. (Romanian myth)
Disclaimer : VampGirl.com does NOT recommend any of these actions and must remind the reader that these are all documented MYTH and that noone has lived to prove that they work. If you really MUST be a vampire surely buying some fangs, visiting some goth nightclubs and/or establishing a Late-Night Internet Addiction should bring on the 'pasty vamp look' in no time at all;)
