My recent fixation..

I develop strange fixations, likings and obsessions time to time.. What's my latest fixation?

Well, I have fallen in love with the idea of Vampires.. Strangely I don't find them evil as they are mostly shown.. No, its not the result of watching 'Twilight'.. Neither because of the HBO TV series, 'True blood'...

I was always fascinated with Vampires.. I always fancied them.. I wanted to know how it feels to be them.. I remember watching Discovery channel's presentation on the medieval England and Vampires.. I wondered if it is true.. I still am clueless if they existed or do they still exist.. Dangerous and mystical and so intriguing.. I would search for every possible information available on the subject.. Over the years all the mythological beings have been proved to exist.. The latest I remember was the discovery of a 'Dragon'.. That mythological animal with 4 limbs, wings and that breathed fire.. They lived as recently as 16th century.. Oh my God!! I was watching the entire series on Discovery without batting an eyelid.. So mesmerised and so deeply engrossed that at one point I heard my Dad laughing at me..


It is extinct now, but I wonder if it were still breathing in some part of the world as it had adapted to live on so long after the extinction of Dinosaurs.. It can live on land, desert and in mountains, in seas and forests.. Wonder where on earth a living one pops out and breathes fire on unsuspecting people just like a sci-fi movie..[:] Godzila?? Maybe..

But recently the movie 'The Queen of the Damned' made me realise the long forgotten love for the being.. The male protagonist was so captivating.. Lestat was just the vamipre I always dreamt of.. He was mysterious, not proud of his powers, somewhat lonely, just like any other normal being, not willing to live as a creature of the dark.. Just like a normal human being, and I wonder if it were not a fiction, what would they be like? Somewhat like Lestat or the devilish types shown in other movies??


I wonder the day some scientific evidence to support the existence of Vampires would be presented in front of us and we would be discussing the various details of his anatomy.. To know how it can live to eternity.. Indefinitely.. And how exactly they die if they are immortal..
