when you use a blog on tumblr as a source for information
why do i gotta give u a works cited on why its good to make vampires non-white and how to draw them lmfao????
when someone needs a full dissertation fully formated to consider vampires dont need to be pale as fuck:
Eat, Ass, Jr. “Eat My Entire Ass.” Just Admit You’re Racist. Kal’s Ass Too, 17 Oct. 2016. Web.
People are aware that when black people die, their bodies don’t suddenly become like, WHITE, right?

“Fiction should follow reality, draw women in practical outfits!” “Fiction shouldn’t have to follow reality, draw dark skinned vampires!” “Fiction should follow reality, draw women with average body types!” “Fiction shouldn’t have to follow reality, draw native black europeans!”
Welp, the rules on the social justice approved ways of writing fiction keep changing and my poor white male brain can’t follow!
The typical vampires originated in east europe so ofcourse they are fucking white.
If you wan’t supernatural beings who are not white you might look at other regions. I’m sure you’ll find lots similar things instead getting salty at european superstitions and legends with hundreds of years of history.
Except, lol, as usual, you anti-sjws are so busy being mad that you don’t L2Google anything, and your nonsense has no basis in historical legends.
Lucky for you, I wrote my thesis on international storytelling tropes, and I happen to have time today! 😀
Almost every culture on this planet has a vampire story, and a lot of them influenced each other, seeing as how the world has always been an entire world and not segregated like people tend to think.
In ancient Mesopotamia, which, lol, is the origin point of all humanity, there were/are stories of the Ekkimu, the Urukku/Utukku, Lilith, the children of Lamashtu, the Seven Demons, and
vyrolakas. All of them were flesh eaters and blood suckers, and, lol, because they were older stories than eastern Europe, they’re obviously the origin point of the mythos of the turning of humans into supernatural flesh eaters!
You can read about vampiric mythology of ancient North Africa here.
You know what else that site has? The monsters that came to mind when I saw @genjey‘s silly comment, vampires of ancient Asia!
See, my specialty is in American-Asian relations, so my mind was like, “Wait, what about the ability of vampires to turn in to animals coming from the Leyak of Bali in Indonesia. And the beautiful vampire brides of Dracula being influenced by the Mandurugo of the Philippines?”
Who are, like Dracula, daywalkers, unlike eastern Eurpean vampires. It’s almost like authors cobble shit together from previous stories without restricting themselves to a single source!
(Btw, you know who can tell you more about that? The same damned vampire website, right here.)
So like, I know y’all think you’re cute when you come around here with your conjecture and your absolute ignorance of WORLD literary traditions, but, lol, please confine yourselves to shit you actually know something about, like unwashed pubic hair.
Also, sweetie, if you follow your silliness to its logical conclusion, white zombies can’t exist, because zombies belong to the Chinese and the African diaspora. The word itself is Haitian, and the Chinese have been telling stories of the jiang shi since before white people discovered soap.
