A krsnik (female: krsnica[1][2]) or kresnik is a type of vampire hunter, a shaman whose spirit wanders from the body in the form of an animal. The krsnik turns into an animal at night to fight off the kudlak, his evil vampire antithesis, with the krsnik appearing as a white animal and the kudlak as a black one.[3] The krsnik's soul leaves the body, either voluntarily or due to a higher power, to fight evil agents and ensure good harvest, health, and happiness.[4]

La Pizzeria, formerly known as Papa Zac's Pizzeria (Lore Wise) is a Italian restaurant that was opened in London, UK. Specifically situated between Westminster. The establishment was founded by a late Italian immigrant, which remains unknown following the closure of the restaurant because of vampire activity. Vampire activity was discovered at the restaurant due to human remains being found in the old storage room spread between separate supply boxes. The restaurant was known to be a hangout and a base for survivors due to it being in a big population Centre. Sometime between 2008-20XX, a full on assault was launched onto the old Pizzeria by a strong Vampire. The total bloodbath of Vampire Hunting Team members and Skilled Vampires was problematic for both sides.
La Pizzeria's rebuilt newer location was used as a base for the W.A.V.H.T and a stronghold within the London Area for planning. After a recent raid sent out by 'Vlad the Impaler', the place was left abandoned and became a nesting area for vampires. Today's survivors and Hunter come in when they venture in, scavenging and hoping to utilize the location.
Ann Radcliffe never wrote a vampire novel, but no one can deny her place at the forefront of Gothic novelists. She was really the first major influential Gothic novelist with the success of her books The Romance of the Forest (1791), The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794), and The Italian (1797). While numerous other Gothic novelists were her contemporaries, they were all likely influenced by her. Her popularity caused even non-Gothic novelists like Fanny Burney and Jane Austen to include Gothic elements in their novels. Consequently, Radcliffe is not only the mother of the Gothic but the mother of the vampire novel.
Still, anti-vampire efforts continued. And, perhaps most surprisingly of all, one of the last big vampire scares occurred in 19th century New England, two centuries after the infamous Salem witch trials.
During the vampire panic in New England, vampires were finding a new role in European books like The Vampyre (1819), Carmilla (1871-72), and Dracula (1897), as well as in vampire-themed plays. Though drawn from folk legends and past vampire scares, these aristocratic, sexual vampires were more like the vampires we know today.
In 1970, Manchester told a TV news team that he planned to exercise the vampire on Friday the 13th. That night, hundreds of young people turned up at Highgate Cemetery to see him perform an exorcism (which he ended up not doing).
As the title suggests, the most prominent monsters in the Buffy bestiary are vampires, which are based on traditional myths, lore, and literary conventions. Although, as the series continues, Buffy and her companions face an increasing variety of demons and supernatural creatures, as well as unscrupulous humans. They frequently save the world from annihilation by a combination of physical combat, magic, and detective-style investigation, and are guided by an extensive collection of ancient and mystical reference books.
The idea was first visited through Whedon's script for the 1992 movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The director, Fran Rubel Kuzui, saw it as a "pop culture comedy about what people think about vampires." Whedon disagreed: "I had written this scary film about an empowered woman, and they turned it into a broad comedy. It was crushing."[3] The script was praised within the industry, but the movie was not.[4]

In 1997, a reimagined version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer premiered on The WB, with Sarah Michelle Gellar taking over the titular role. With Whedon more fully at the helm, the saga picked up in the wake of events more in line with his movie script. Having burned down her previous school (to kill a nest of vampires), Buffy moved across the country with her mother, Joyce (Kristine Sutherland). Settling in Sunnydale, Buffy soon learned that leaving her old life (or her destiny) behind wouldn't be quite so easy. Meeting her new Watcher, Rupert Giles (Anthony Stewart Head), she learned that her new school was built on a Hellmouth. As such, more than just vampires would be going bump in the night and it was her duty to stop them. She was soon joined in that endeavor by such allies as Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan), Xander Harris (Nicholas Brendon), Angel (David Boreanaz), Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter), and Oz (Seth Green).
Once it was revealed that Robin Wood (D.B. Woodside) was her son, The First assumed her form to torment and manipulate him. The comics would further flesh out her tenure as a Slayer. In Tales of the Slayers, Nikki was depicted to have been in a relationship with an NYPD police officer named Li. After Li was killed by a vampire named Le Banc, Nikki would personally get revenge upon both him and the giant bat he called a pet. It was also revealed she'd been forced to undergo the traditional Tento di Cruiiamentum trial (battling a vampire without powers) despite being pregnant. Nikki also figured into Buffy's dilemma when she mistakenly believed she was pregnant in Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 9, issue 6, "On Your Own, Part One".
Played by Eliza Dushku, Faith made her debut in Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 3, episode 3, "Faith, Hope & Trick". Like Kendra, she initially wasn't given a last name until the video game. Activated in the wake of Kendra's death, Faith fled to Sunnydale when her Watcher was murdered. She quickly joined the Scooby ranks, operating as the Yin to Buffy's Yang. After killing the Deputy Mayor, mistaking him for a vampire, she quickly descended to the dark side. Siding with The Mayor, who became somewhat of a father figure, she murderously helped him towards his ascension. After his defeat and some time in a coma, Faith would engage in some more acts of villainy. Defeated yet again by Buffy and her friends, she left Sunnydale for Los Angeles.
Played by Felicia Day, Violet was another potential Slayer that was sent to Buffy for protection. Unlike some, she had lived with and been mentored by a Watcher. Unfortunately, they had adopted an extremely sheltered approach to the training. She would complain that she'd only ever seen a blurry photograph of a vampire. Regardless, her skills and confidence grew throughout the seasons. They were even more realized when she was activated as a full Slayer. In the comics, she would appear with Andrew on a Slayer recruitment commercial, before becoming the leader of the Slayer Organization's New York branch. In that capacity, she would aid against several threats, including Twilight.
However, in the past few thousand years, the nobility slowly and mysteriously began to die off. What keeps the thinning line between them and the survival of humanity are hunters hired to eliminate the menacing fanged creatures of the night.

Italy is a state at the Mediterranean, which most supernaturals having ties to the Roman Empire of antiquity or the advances of the Renaissance cities. Today, the situation has slightly changed, and many among the supernaturals are forced to maintain a low profile due the high percentage of Witch-hunters active in Italy.
Italian vampire (Homopteryx Deinodontus Italius) is a subspecies of vampire that originated from the 1959 film, Uncle was a Vampire. Unlike their ancestors, they are pure evil blood-sucking immortal creatures of the night. They are able to suck the blood out of their victims and can turn their victims into vampires. However, they are repeled by garlic and are harmed by religious artifacts.
Vampire girl names offer some unique and less heard options that span several cultures and languages. Many male vampire names like Dracula, Lestat, and Vlad are well known. But female vampires are equally important.
