Vampire gibt es. Sie sind lebendig, sehen nicht schlecht aus und denken ?fters an Blut und H?lse. Die ?lteren Semester sind verschattete Figuren oder Konzern-Chefs. Die j?ngeren k?nnen hingegen sexy bis zum Anschlag sein. Eins haben sie alle gemeinsam: Es fehlt ihnen Energie. Und die m?ssen sie sich holen. Der Kriminalbiologe Dr. Mark Benecke ist dem Ph?nomen des Vampirs nachgegangen und entdeckte diese Subkultur in den USA wie auch in Deutschland, wo sie unerkannt mitten unter uns verweilen. Angereichert wird dieses Buch mit einem Bericht von der letzten Vampir-enterdigung, die sich im Juli 2004 in Marotinul des Sus (Rum?nien) zugetragen hat so wie mit einem Interview mit einem weiblichen Vampir. Nach dem Lesen dieses Buches wird jedem klar sein, dass hinter dem Wort "Vampir“ weit mehr steckt als eine literarische Fiktion.

Vampire gibt es. Neben dem edlen Grafen ist da der ma?lose Vamp aus der Nachbarschaft sowie der Nervt?ter, der uns Zeit, Geld und Energie stiehlt. Manche glauben an Nachzehrer, die ihr Leichentuch im Grab auffressen, und Rollenspieler kleiden sich wahlweise vampirromantisch, saugen gedanklich gerne Blut oder tr?umen davon, ?berw?ltigt zu werden, um ihre Langeweile zu ?berwinden. In diesem Buch zeigt Ines Fischer, Betreiberin der international gr??ten aktiven Internetgemeinschaft, die sich mit vampyrischen Motiven im echten Leben echter Personen besch?ftigt, dass es auch Menschen – oder Wesen? – gibt, die Blutdurst versp?ren, sich dabei samtig fein im Schatten bewegen, aber keiner Fliege eine Borste kr?mmen. Die Mitglieder der weltweit gr??ten Vamprygesellschaft berichten in dieser wissenschaftlichen Studie ?ber ihre Gedanken, Vorlieben, St?rken und Schw?chen. Dabei zeigt sich unter anderem, dass und warum Sonnenlicht nicht immer l?stig ist, Treue aus unerwarteten Gr?nden etwas Gutes sein kann und dass Menschen auch ohne abgeschaute Vorbilder eine Gruppen- und Einzelidentit?t leben, deren biografische Wurzeln ?berraschend klar zutage treten.
