Before Stephanie Meyers novel twilight they were portrayed as foul and evil creatures, wickedly known for their bloodsucking and stealing one’s souls. Vampire myths, as some may know may be real, this is a debatable topic.

1. Vampires don’t come in unless invited

These chivalrous creatures are not one to disrespect someone’s privacy. This is one of the weaknesses of a vampire. In order to gain entrance into a household, they need to be invited and they cannot be uninvited until the owner changes. This concept was particularly explained in the vampire diaries series.
