Annabeth Chase because I live in the real world where vampires burn in the sun.

Annabeth Chase hi, how is Percy doing? Is he still being a seaweed brain?

A sparkling vampire, really!!! What else they gonna be in the future huh vampire that puking rainbow and help people?

@@aimansyahmidzulkhairy909 It feeds on your happiness, so to make more, it helps out and pukes rainbows. But then, something goes wrong, and the vampires just eat all of the happiness.

@@IrvingIV thus the great depression era begin.

Definitely not altered in any way

And he's adorable as heck

666th life

Well yea cause history of humans were explained by humans as well have you seen a bull explaining the history of human?

@@lunar3clipfan441 damn i didn't even realize so many people would like my comment. Missed the 666th like.

well the whole concept of Dracula's accent is wrong ...he was romanian not russian or something

I think Bela Lugosi was Hungarian

This accent was terrible. The narrator was horrendous

I liked the accent as well and would love a vampire creepypasta story teller

+1000FOF hey shawol!

1000FOF yes! and are 100% correct

Hiiii

An 8 year old comment :0

anyway yall missed something, word Vampire is word of Serbian origin and first “Vampire” case that ever occurred was also in Serbia and it was about some dude named Petar Blagojevic that supposedly got out of his grave every night and sucked peoples blood, and people also said that when they dug up his grave his hearth was still beating and when they stabbed him he made some superhuman screaming noise, although i don’t believe this happened i wanted to show people this interesting story

book Dracula Romania castle Transylvania count heart Dracula

😊

Can someone get all baby teeth at once? What would be the conditions for it?

Lol that sounds like alot of trouble. But if you have eternity, a week making a fake vamp video is nothing. ♥️🧛‍♂️

lol we know it was

My life has been a complete and total misery ever since Bigfoot stole my precious girlfriend in the middle of the night.😒I am most upset.

There is a lot of that lol

He didn't want to violate the masquerade.

Is epic.

love it😁😁😁😁

So all Spanish people are vampires?

Sounds Russian lol

+Kris Silveira That's because Vlad the Impaler was romanian,but the western people have the wrong idea that all the east european conturies have russian accent,wich obviously is wrong.In fact romanian is mostly latin being very close to italian.

Lol the twilight reference

Yea that's cheeky lol

No... no they can not be included lol

@@MaatsMerkaba The vamp said they can, so imma believe him

@@MaatsMerkaba I agree. The sparkling vampires didn’t happen, right, everyone?

Travenzen lol

Travenze

Travenzen Yeah, why can't you just join the cyborg master race?

banana lin hotel transylvania 😂

same😘

and ponies!

And werewolves!

There's not really much diversity in mermaids unlike the vampire, there's kinda just only the human body with the fish tail, not really anything else

Chris Ramsey In fact, the first mermaids were female-like bird who would kidnap men and drown them before eating them...so no, not all mermaids are fish :)

HappyMars Ending that's interesting, Chris there is so many interesting facts and gory stories about mermaids!

O.O

Lmao

Before you know it you’ll be craving blood

@@bunni6956 you probably have insomnia and depression

Hello fellow Romanian :))

God. Right?! That's such bs! Glitter in the sun..what? Wtf? I so hate twilight. 🧛‍♀️

I knowwww 😂😂 so Savage

Edward Cullen

That shade tho!

Wait a month and someone will suggest nuke

yeah, I feel like the 'classic' vampire has become kind of cheesy and unimpressive.

I remember in New Moon [gag] they told the story of how the wolves started when the "cold woman" came to destroy their people. in the movies, as horrible as they were, the actress who played the "cold woman" did a very good job of portraying exactly what you just described in just the few minutes of screen time she had, a vicious animal with human intelligence. just squint so you can't see the glitter 😅

I was going to say Wolfen until you said "human". I recommend reading the book or watching the movie though, because that's kind of what it's about: Man's natural predator living in hiding all around him, unseen.

Caleb Andrews

I'm Australian and never heard of it till now lol

Hmu if you find a skeleton mate

its sounds like the main tune of a meme called numa numa

@@astrogaming4284 yara hee yara ha yaramayahoo

We all got blood sucked by those pesky little vampires

@@neutralpie420 mosquito aka little assholes

I swear I read "Show less" as part of your comment. I may be out of blood.

lol

Fun fact: mosquitoes actually aren’t meant to drink blood, they are supposed to have sugar it makes them live longer.

OH MY GAAWWDDD YASSSS!!!!

heh

so if I trapped a mosquito in a jar full of glitter and said I caught a sparkling vampire it would be true, I caught a vampire

Ohh....I though it was mention of that shit movie twilight.

NicoMajor101 A mutant one.

whats the refrecnce

nvm i got it its edward cullan lol

Sparkling vampires are mosquitoes dipped in glitter.

I wish I didn’t.

Kars reference or dio?

Jonah Marx it is useful if you do an presentation on the history of vampires ;)

Ikr

+Nina Gatison Only former humans can become Vampires (im just nitpicking, nice joke) Though, mosquitos are still the spawns of the devil himself.

lol thats true :))

Nina Gatison they are a mini version of blood sucking bat vampires but vampires stay up all night

You are definitely right. Only common vampire trait is feeding on one's life force, as long as something or someone's doing it they are vampires

Also Dave, not every vampire in mythology were humans before, actually most of them were not humans ever...

HES NOT DRACULA SO NO

LOL

How common is the "Dracula" outfit in vampires? I doubt that Dracula isn't the only one who dresses like that.

Blah Blah Blah. Hahaha

ofcourse not! it should have been "bleigh"

so they can fly out of them as bats. also, to appear normal also, they could have been there before the vampire arrived.

cjwalkerist luke hello

Laura Wong hi

I asked my Dad this once about another vampire, he replied with something along the lines of "Well, if he blocked up his windows, or had them removed and replaced with just more walls, the local villagers would realise that the guy was a vampire because most humans wouldn't mind a bit of sunlight but vampires do. Then, they'd come in, outnumber him and kill him." My Dad's a pretty smart guy.

Also they need the fresh air. I guess.

Team dough because we can

Exactly😂

right

Who?

Lady Grinning Soul he’s from the vampire diaries

@@day6atemywallet78 Thanks, nice person on internet. 😊🤝

Still has blood on it

Patricia Yvonne Andres Not only blood though.

Haha yeah

are you Filipino too? (cus I am)

and it also said that Vampires survive by the life force of others here not just specificaly blood but Blood is much common known for what Vampires want

try the mobile game: eyes the horror game. it is a penanggalan creature

Vampires aren't even creepy enough to describe them. They're literally monsters because based from stories, they eat people instead of drinking only the blood. *shivers*

And westerners think they're just myths..

Asian supernatural entities are not to be messed with trust me check out Philippine supernatural creatures there more horrifying than you can imagine

@GODZILLA EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!! that was tik tik Mananggal are killing men by taking their hearts, eating entrails and drinking their blood. To kill them is you to find the half of their body put a lot of salt or holy water and for the mananggal to be one

Yeah, I find Filipinos to be really keen on seeking recognition. Even products made in the country are labelled "Proudly Philippine-made"

Yes, only that, manananggal isn't really a "vampire" but a different entity

Philippines are very well-known by those who look for scary folklore.

It's interesting no? But I hope I don't find a manananggal anytime soon!

I and really scared by your mannangalan but can you give me some information like how it was born or what was its back story in the replies please

Sounds like vampire worship to me

Vlad the impaler wasn’t the inspiration for Dracula. Stoker’s main inspiration was Irish mythology. He simply heard the name Dracula and decided he liked it

Interesting fact: Vlad Nabijač, Dracula's Museum, lived in Transylvania for only a short time, and the stories of the tyrant prince, known to many at the time for his Hungarian political enemies, are also a civic hero. After the unification of the state (the country he ruled) and Moldova, a state was formed in Romania. Google translate

He was actually born in Transylvania, in the city of Sighișoara. I visited the town twice as of now abd ket ne tell you, there were many vlad-themed souvenirs and a museum in the building called Vlad Dracul House, where Vlad was supposed to have gotten out of his mother's oven.

As i romanian i know the back story of Vlad the impairer and he has on of the saddest life ever and its full of trauma from a young age hes a bit like Eren Yeager but with more trauma and lost loved ones Oh and yeah a lot of genocide Genocide of the ottoman armys

MURPHYCHACHO i hate twilight cause the movie got an award and HARRY POTTER DIDNT

why about Aphmau s research culinary and Nutella swan...

TaliTG 0 XD YES

MURPHYCHACHO ok?

MURPHYCHACHO fitting profile pic lol

15 women this round damn

Serb vampire

@@comradestar5584 whats the difference between a Serbian and Russian accent?

i think its mostly copying the romanian accent( its a combination of the russian and italian pronounciation), as Transilvania is in Romania

@@comment514 you are right!

uh its a transylvanian accent but its hard to tell the difference

It's a shame that they talk about Eastern Europe, and they included Albanian "vampire" but, they couldn't even mention Serbian vampire. As +Jovan Vidojevic said, there is rich "folklore" about vampires in Serbia. Shame on you TED-Ed

Yess 🙄👏👏👏👏

Dark and Physic types

I'm going to get my Pokeballs to catch all the members of Addama Family.

Lol

Pikachu has sharp teeth for a reason.

And he didn't mention that at all...🤷‍♀️

@@jelena1133 they mention the origin of the word in their other video about Dracula

Bampira

That fact is fun! Lol. I didn't know that. Learn something new everyday. Thank you! Why is the word Serbian?
