Vampire Children

Loading ...The question here is not whether vampires can reproduce, as we all know they reproduce by spreading their “Vampiric Virus” with a bite on the neck. The question is whether or not two vampires can perform the horizontal cha-cha, and create a baby the old fashioned way.
Since vampires don’t age, I think it would be impossible because that baby would perpetually be a zygote. Unless, vampires produce a normal baby when they copulate, and somehow the mother’s womb protects it from the virus.
Another thing that bugs me about vampire movies is how the old ones look old, and the young ones look young. You rarely ever see a young looking elder vampire. In theory, since they don’t age, the oldest vampire could look like a 4-year old child. Maybe that’s the key, maybe all vampires are kids, and we just don’t think to look for vampire kids.
This is why I should make movies.
Here’s some interesting links about Vampires, and their little hell spawns:

I think the whole thing with vampires not reproducing is when they are bitten they die. Then who ever bit them gives the victim a bit of their blood and poof the other person is a vampire. I’m not one of those vampire freaks that worships movies and books so I may be way off par with this one. Though I dunno if you have seen the movie Van Helsing, the vampire in that movie made little spawns, but it was a bit creepy and way too much to explain. ^_~

hmmm, I actually saw Van Helsing in the theaters but I was so bored, I fell asleep. Not much I liked about that movie. In the interest of research I may have to see it again, if only to study the different methods of vampire reproduction.

In Interview With A Vampire, isn’t the little girl like 10?

According to wikipedia, the vampire (Lestat) bites a five year old girl and turns her into a vampire. It’s still not vampires making babies, but they do keep her five years old for the whole movie, so at least someone has done vampire aging correctly.

Actually there is a vampire family in a Disney movie Little Vampire. I think that was the name. There’s bound to be some confusion there on the aging of those kids, admitedly. There’s also several young vampires in the children’s Vampire Kisses series but they’re intentionally vague about how or whether they age at all, although they seem to. The Vampire’s in Darren Shan’s Cirque Du Freak series DID age, at the rate of one year of age for every 10 that pass with half-vampires aging at one year per five, but they were all sterile and only had one or two females at all.
It’s my personal theory that Vampires, generally getting it on a lot with mortals and each other are probably sterile in the traditional sense, but since they’re magical anyways can probably impregnate with some weird blood ritual after sex. Then the kids are born human and they change them once they get older. Thus explaining away all the plot holes without thinking too much.
Also the webcomic Charby the Vampirate (which everyone should read) has several child Vampires and they do tend to run things. So there ya go.
PS Van Helsing sucked. Not a pun.

Read Darren Shan’s brilliant vampire series. (Yes, it’s for kids, but who cares?). He says that becoming a vampire makes you infertile AND that you age reeaaallllyyy slowly. Answer for everything, that’s what he’s got

Haven’t you seen Interview With The Vampire? I think it explains it in there… Or blade? I guess the trick is being half human.

A vampire series for kids? weird. Looks like I’ve got lots of research to do here. Awesome!

Additionally, in the “Interview With a Vampire” movie, the vamp played by Antonio Banderas is quite ancient, but still portrayed as young and tasty-looking. ^_^

I think that vamp’s have young and they age reguarly until they reach a certin age and then remain that sge forever.

I am a 55 year old male sanguine and I can tell you that we do age but more slowly than our human counterparts since I have been told I only look to be in my 30’s, normanlly male sanguine do not posses the enough of certain cells and emzimes to contribute to normal birthing habbits and bitting one to infect transformation is not condoned either since the viruses we carry are deadly to humans as well. I know it is fun to speculate what movie writters portray how we are in there eyes, but I can assure you that we do age and we do eventually die.
