About Damien Daville
Greetings..
I am a 48 year old primarily empathic vampire now living near the Austin area of
Texas in the States. I also like elemental sources, and am a sanguine vampire
with the right donor. I first learned of my vampirism as a teen in high school
around 1970, and have developed its needs and abilities ever since. I have
worked in some way helping others understand real vampirism for about thirty
years. I came to the internet about 1995 and worked online in the few vamp
forums around. I founded the Darkfear Network in early 1997, and then the
Vampire Church in 1998. I also founded Web Alliance. In 2001, I founded the Texas
Vampire Association, to better bring real vampires together in the state of
Texas. I spend most of my time now, working in the offline vampire community and
in the public, helping other
people to understand real vampirism. The Vampire Church is active both online
and offline.

Question: With all the naming of 'I am this type of vampire', do you feel
this causes a rift in the way we handle each other?
Greetings,
I have found that there are many types of real vampirism, and there is also as much misunderstanding or disbelief of these types of vampirism. One problem I have found is some believe that there is either one form of vampirism such as sanguinary vampirism and either ignore other types or do not accept that there are other alternative forms of vampirism. People need to broaden their minds to listen to the experiences of other vampires. It has been my experience that there are many ways to access energy as a real vampire. It is important to note this to others who may have believed that there is only their own way. There are also those who will bring in what they think is vampirism due to what has been learned from books, other people, and film. This type of posting causes more confusion among those who do not know as well as conflict with the forms of vampirism many know from experience. There is enough influence of the media and other misinformed people to cause misconception and debate. The problem ordinarily arises when one believes in only his own process or way.
Dark regards,
