Do vampires really exist? Are they one more thing to worry about?
　 吸血鬼真的存在么？他們值得我們另加擔心么？

　　It depends on whom you ask.
　　嘿嘿，這取決于你問誰咯。

　　Vampires have long been a part of the folklore of certain areas, particularly in parts of Eastern Europe. Made famous in modern times by Bram Stoker's Dracula, vampires were portrayed as horrific characters who terrorized the townspeople, rising at night to suck the blood of their victims, thus turning the victims into vampires, too. Stories also exist of people having witnessed the aftermath of a vampire attack.
　　一直以來，吸血鬼是一些特定地區民間傳說的一部分，這一傳說在東歐的一些地方特別流行。由于Bram Stoker的小說《驚情400年》使得吸血鬼一鳴驚人，他們被賦予令人恐懼的形象，他們在城鎮里恐嚇鎮民，夜間出行來吮吸受害者的鮮血，也因此制造出新的吸血鬼。故事中也包含人們目睹吸血鬼襲擊獵物后的場景。

　　Nowadays, books, movies and TV are filled with vampires and werewolves, and some, such as Twilight's Edward Cullen, are even sympathetic characters. On this date in 1997, Buffy the Vampire Slayer premiered on TV, mixing wit, teenage angst and B-movie drama in a popular series about a high-school student who is chosen to slay the vampires that inhabit her town.
　　現今，小說、電影和電視劇都充斥著吸血鬼和狼人的身影，譬如說《暮光之城》中的愛德華·庫倫，他甚至具備了人性化的同情心。1997年上演的電視劇《吸血鬼殺手醉鬼布飛》，是一部混雜著機智、青春叛逆和B級電影手法的片子，這部連續劇講述了一個高中生殺死藏匿在鎮上的吸血鬼的駭人故事。
