This book is about modern Vampires (Sanguinarian, Psychic, Tantric & other types of Vampires) that are murderers.
They are cannibals, they have a blood fetish and they are delusional, mentally ill, out of touch with reality & a serial killer.
The woman on the cover of the book is a German woman named Manuela Ruda she is a Sanguinarian Vampire/a Satanist and she sacrificed a man with her husband at the time Daniel Ruda (they have since divorced)
They were both a Sanguinarian Vampire & a Satanist they believed that if they sacrificed someone to Satan that it would please them.
Both of them lived a alternative, Goth/Satanist lifestyle, they slept in a coffin and drank human blood.
Both are delusional & mentally ill, I feel like a lot of people mentioned in the book will fit that category.
There is a mental illness known as Clinical Vampirism
(A.K.A Renfield's Syndrome) and it involves people believing they are a Vampire and they need to consume blood to survive.
They are obsessed & addicted to drinking human or animal blood.
There a mental illness called Cotard's Syndrome that involves people that believe they are already dying, dead & decaying despite still being alive, or that they don't exist it's very bizarre.
There is a medical condition called Porphyria which is a rare blood disorder that affects the skin, digestion, make the skin very sensitive to sunlight & that involves people needing to drink blood of animals like pig's blood.
Vampires historically were believed to be a plague victims or a witch.
There are people known as Sabbatarians that can sense and see/hunt Vampires, they were born on a Saturday, hence the term "Sabbatarian"
It's Bulgarian in it's origin but other countries such as Greece, Romania and Serbian also have this belief of a Vampire Hunter, or of a Dhampir (a half human-half Vampire being)
There is no known benefit to drinking human blood, however blood contains energy, the lifeforce of a person so in a spiritual way blood is powerful, the essence of a person and it can be used for the purpose of witchcraft.
Some people have a condition called Cotard's syndrome in which they appear dead but they are actually still alive, their heartbeat becomes very slow and barely noticeable & they are buried alive which is terrifying.
Besides any mental illness involving Vampirism the spiritual aspect, Vampyre Magick & the Vampire Community is very interesting to me.
My long-distance boyfriend is a Tantric Vampire
(they feed on your sexual energy)

Clinical Vampirism or Clinical Lycanthropy isn't talked about much, nor is the clinical/psychiatric or spiritual aspect of Vampirism, Lycanthropy or Cannibalism.
There hasn't really been a clinical/psychiatric analysis of Cannibalism, the spiritual aspect of it or any type of analysis of Cannibalistic murders/occult crimes. Some Cannibals consume the brain of a Cannibalized corpse which leads to them contracting a disease called "Kuru" which is fatal within 2 years & it's similar to Mad-Cow disease.
This is the only book so far that has mentioned Clinical Vampirism, mental illnesses & delusions some people have about being a Vampire and the blood-fetish, obsession or need/urge to drink human or animal blood or eat human beings.
The authors mentions The Temple of the Vampire which I already know about, but I need to buy a copy of their book The Vampire Bible.
Vampirefreaks.com doesn't exist anymore unfortunately, but not everyone liked me there & talked shit about me in the chatroom, there were a lot of posers, misogynists, narcissists there.
Some people are just a delusional, pathological liar and full of shit that would say & do anything to impress people or to brag.
The church of the werewolf is also worth checking out if you are a spiritual & open-minded.
If there are Vampire chatroom, I've never seen any, it would be nice if the Vampire Community was accepting of people online.
People aren't exactly welcoming & accepting of people on the Vampire Forum.

The author has previously dated two serial killers which is odd.
It's unusual for a author to date serial killers but not unheard of.
Some people are sexually attracted to serial killers
(Hybristophilia- sexualizing serial killers & when a person is sexually attracted to serial killers)
Some people are attracted to sadists either because they are just as depraved, sadistic, and a deviant, sexual sadist, or because they are submissive, a masochist or "𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩𝐢𝐞"
The serial killer or sadist would have the dominant role, the willing participant that is their willing accomplice is usually submissive, or a masochist.
Gerard Schafer and Henry Rollings.
(The "𝐆𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫" a serial killer that was the inspiration for the "𝐆𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞" killer & the inspiration for teenagers to stab a girl to death known as the "S𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬")

I have read various books about Satanic & Occult crimes which have elements of Satanism but that doesn't necessarily mean that the crime(s) are actually Satanic. Most Satanists are atheistic and they don't even believe that Satan or Lucifer (their origin is Roman and in Latin their name means ("Light-Bearer" or "Light-Bringer")
Most Satanists don't believe that either Satan or Lucifer are a real, celestial, interdimensional & powerful supernatural entity/being that actually exists.
Satanists don't sacrifice animals, humans including babies, or cannibalize them, however blood is a offering, and most things that Satanists do in terms of witchcraft is symbolic, not literal.
The "Satanic Panic" only proved that Christians demonize anyone or anything that is different, alternative or they either don't agree with or are offended by what they don fully understand.
They condemn anyone/anything associated with it, hence fearmongering people with nonsense.
People always hate & fear what they don't understand, they make no effort whatsoever to understand.
They would rather demonize people, ruin their reputation & label them as evil, when they are a loner, a outcast, or they choose to be alternative, different, to follow their own path and there is nothing wrong with that, as long as no person or animal is harmed.
There is nothing wrong with being a Goth, Metalhead, Punk, a witch, Spiritual Vampire, Satanist or a Occultist, Demonologist

Manuela & Daniel Ruda both seem like people that aren't trusting of other people, both are sadomasochistic, a Satanist & Sanguinarian Vampire.
Daniel was pro-Nazism and Manuela was a Dominatrix.
Even if they aren't considered mentally ill, I still think that both of them are delusional & suffering from psychosis which is related to their Satanic beliefs.
Both were diagnosed with severe narcissistic personality disorder so they are personality disordered and it would take at least 10 years of therapy to improve their character defect.
Most people by now have heard of the "Cannibal of Rotenberg"
Armin Meiwes, but if you haven't then read the section of the book about him or a book called "Cannibal"
From a young age he had cannibalistic fantasies of eating his peers, until he made advertisements on various Deep Web chatroom's such as the now infamous "𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐚𝐟é"
Various people responded, to his advertisements but then changed their minds when they realized that Armin was serious about his intention to butcher a man, and cannibalise his corpse.
He lived out his sick fantasy related to the fairy tale Hansel & Gretel in real life.
Even though some of the people mentioned in the book are a Vampire or a Cannibal the desire to drink the blood & consume the flesh of a human being is both Cannibalism & Vampirism.
Both coincides with each other one usually involves the other, so Vampires can be considered Cannibals.
Russia has the most necrophiles, rapists, cannibals that are non repentant, remorseless, sexual sadists & serial killers.… (mais)

While the cases presented in this non-fictional book about murderers who like to drink blood, eat flesh, or believe themselves to be real, blood-drinking vampires are interesting the author's intrusive opinions are not. The author consistently denounces those who are attracted to the romantic image of the vampire and seems to blame them, as well as the rest of society, for the behavior of the murderers. On the other hand she seems to be attracted to the murderers themselves, writing about them as if they are her children who need to be cared for and protected. Undoubtedly a psychological profile of the author would be just as fascinating as the profiles of these "Blood-Sucking Killers Past and Present." Worth a read if you're really interested in the grim and gruesome, are a vampire completest, or find the psychologies of authors as reflected through their work to be as interesting as the work itself.… (mais)
