Are you able to tell by looking at someone, without really saying anything to them that they are either a vampire or are interested in the lifestyle. If so, how ? What do they give off to make you feel that about them.
well for me it a feeling i get from the person it emminates off, them like a scent so to speak. Now how a non vamp could tell... well if they can see aura's can probable tell as well.... hope thats of little help
I am not sure if they give off anything. I can tell though who is for real and who isn't. I think I can just sense it. Intuition I suppose...
The reason I ask this question is because, no on at work knows me on the outside world. Work is work and home is home to me. But for the last month a woman I have worked with for years keeps coming up to me asking me all these questions all of the sudden about vampires and blood.. etc... Just out of the blue, she has attached herself to me with all of these questions to the point and this is not a joke, that this one woman in my office is so afraid of me that everytime i walk past her she covers her neck, (she watched to many movies I think). I never say anything at all, I just tell her that her stories are interesting and yadda yadda.. Its just strange how all of the sudden she started this.
I know I can tell. It is mostly just a feeling. But something about a person, it is like a kindred attraction or something, not sure how to describe it. But I can tell 99 % of the time.
Thats interesting. I can tell there is something unusual about people. Im sensitive to that kind of thing...unfortunatly for me. The damn spirits in the house i live in know this. Now i wont go in the basement alone anymore...for some reason he likes it down there. stacking wood and scaring the crap out of me.
Only if they are dressed in black, have the nail thing going and perhaps too much pancake around the eyes
I've never really thought about it that way, but those of us into vampires seem to find each other. Hmm food for thought at least.
it all depends on the aura they are so tastefully radient with
it depends sometimes yes somtimes no you can tell a look about a person by the way they look at you
Most of the time yes.
It's not only in vampirism but something else like feeling the oerson is into witchcraft etc....
I don't know it's just that I sometimes feel like a sort of energy in certain people.
Michelle Belanger addresses this in her book ... there does seem to be an affinity that is sensed ... but I do believe that it is a two way street ...
Lady Frances, if thy work peer is coming to thee, it may be that thou art sending out the right kind of energy ...
I pary, thou all be well ...

She seems to trust me very much. She loves to tell me stories about her hometown in Ecuador and the vampire stories and things that have happend there. She just come to me almost everday with another question. Then she just sits and smiles at me all day.. Its kind of funny actually. I mean, I love her, she is genuine so i dont mind her telling me or asking me anything at all.
If it were an actual vampire you would feel their presence. Not someone just into the lifestyle
I agree and think it smostly a gut feeling, So many people are into it. Its not just goth wear or leather its something deeper. :)
In reality I can just tell or just see it somehow..no vibes or auras I just know...I know that thing where you tell the person who might think your interest in vampires is somewhat scary that they take you so literal to the fact that they think you're a vampire ...they just begin to question you to the pont where you think they're delusional.The fact being is that they dont understand the hidden intellegint behind vampiric activity no matter how alarming.
yeah i get this feeling as if they belong with us. some times i can see purple around them.
Common bonds are noticeable. It takes investigating for Me though, and asking the correct questions. Only then could I be sure.
easiest way for me to tell is by the habits that they have.
maybe it's just like, a sixth sense, something that pricks on the back of your neck
I'm not real sure how I know.But ive always been able to tell when im around other kin (not just vampires).I do belive it has something to do with the change in my energy.
The color of one's clothing is no way to tell if they are Kin or not. Remember Johnny Cash wore all black and he was as far from being a vampire as Mother Teresa was.
I can tell by their energy signatures. An energy signature looks a lot like heat rising from a fire, that wavering distortion that you see above the flames. Those who feed from Psi energiers can also taste/sense this signature at a distance.
I can feel when there are others like me around and they usually can tell i am one as well
Each Mind is attracted to different types of Energy for different reasons...This what gives you and others the different 'feelings' that draw you in different directions...
you cant jsut tell. it depends on the person of course
I agree with Sky - True Kindred always are able to tell their own kind. I think this also works in other methods as well in reference to those who work with different forms of energy (ie a shaman can pick out a wiccan, etc). Which also allows one to tell the truth about those who are actually talking the talk and not walking the walk.
I have to agree with you soul...... and also .. its just a feeling that i get..... and the look in thier eyes
it's that kinda sixth sence thing you get ... you know like when you can talk to some one just once or twice and you are sure you want nothing to do with that person. or i bet you could tell by how they talk of it... if they talk of it like they're not scared at all then they probably don't even believe in vampires. or if they talk about it and have that stupid ass grin on their face then it's probably the same thing
but if they talk about it sincerly with like no wise cracks and aren't trying to expose you to the whole world then i might think the person is interested...
The Enery always shows the answer in the end...It just depends on if you can see it or not...
I can always tell if someone's energy is different. Not specifically if they are a vamp or not, not always at least. It's just a feeling - a pull from them.
That's true...See..feel...How ever you can detect it, the energy will answer your questions....
Our kind has ways of recognizing its own. Often this recognition occurs on an unspoken level and is very subtle, so you must learn to trust your impulses and allow your greater Self to guide you.
Especially in the unawakened, this recognition manifests itself as a Beacon which calls us to them so that they may realize their Potential. The Beacon calls to us on a very basic level, and often speaks purely to our unconscious minds. Thus we find ourselves inexplicably attracted to a Potential, stricken with a sudden fascination for him and a need to draw him closer to us. If we listen to our perceptions and trust our instinctual reactions, we can refine this awareness of others until we can consciously pick out the Beacon in those around us. Sometimes, even after such a refinement has been achieved, the Beacon still slips past our conscious actions and we find ourselves simply responding to its unspoken pull. The pull of the Beacon drives us to feed from the Potential, thus awakening him to the most basic aspect of his hidden nature.
We must learn to recognize the Beacon in others, to judge its varying degrees of strength so that we may go about the awakening in a deliberate manner. We must learn to recognize when it is appropriate to awaken a Potential and when that awakening will bring only grief to all involved.
We must let our judgment rule us in this matter and we must sometimes resist the merely instinctual pull of the Beacon for awakenings that are not appropriate. Not all of those with Potential are fit for the awakening, and if we act rashly we may unwittingly loose the beast of our destruction through a careless move.
I can sometimes tell, based on the energy they give off and pure instinct. It sounds like this woman either saw you somehow out of work, or she herself possesses a sixth sense. If she is not bothering you, what does it matter? Next time that other woman covers her neck around you, lick your lips and mention how hungry you are.
You can tell a lot about a person not just by how you look at them, but how they in turn look at you.
I dont think so I am a vamp and every body just thinks im a gothic freak.
i vote intuition. but i've got excess of that to begin with.
Eyes are the windows to the soul. In some countries it is against courteousy(sp) to look a man in the eyes, and many like to keep their eyes diverted. If you 'know' as it were, then you can freely look them in the eyes.
i never really thought about it. i just look at someone, if they give me a certain kind of look then i just know.
I belive you can well I can. As I look into their eyes I can feel it inside me like we just exchanged words emotions and we keep a gaze for a few seconds before we then go about our seperate ways. It's like they tell me what they don't want anyone else to know as if a secret. I recently noticed this today infact though it has happened before this was a strong feeling as if I knew them before today yet never spoke nor seen them before.
I think some people may be able to sense it and if its someone at work maybe theyre just suspitious because they found something else out. Im not sure how they would be able to tell though.
My opinion on this is that those that are connected to eachother by energies will know. For me.. its not a matter of the outer core of an individual.. it is is a factor of their aura.. the light which eminates from them. I am psychic anyhow.. So I know those that are most like me. I am very attracted to them and not in a physical sense. Once again this is my opinion and how I can sense others.
Call it a 6th sense or intuition. I have learned to follow my instincts. They are rarely wrong even when I choose to ignore them they never fail me.
Like the posts above there are ways one kind can sense their own.
Echo also had a great point in one sentance. Makes perfect sense if you think about it.
Nope - I wouldnt even know what to judge it by. Then again, i dont need to know if a person is a Vampire or not.
you cant tell, is like trying to find if the sky is blue or whe dont see color right
That's not true. The aura of a vampire is distinctly different from the aura of a normal person. And vampires generally have a sort of presence, like I mentioned earlier.
As many people before me may or may not have said, it depends on the level of intuition you have as well as how well the other person wants to be noticed for what they are or what they are interested in...
I can simple see if one person wants to be part of the vampire's lifestyle, I cannot see if a person is a vampire since vamps are not real neither are the people who claim to be one.Its not something of felling just a simple gesture or way they respond and/or even how they talk.
I dont know, you see its a very strange situation. Now for the last couple of days she wont even look at me.. I dont know.. I dont get her yet. She will not look me in the eyes at all now. I did ask her today though to try and find me that article from her country about that girl that was attacked by a vampire.. Supposedly the news and specialists camped out at this girls house after marks were found on her and were confirmed to be that of a bite from a vampire and he was caught. This was supposedly many years ago..She is in her 50's so this happened when she was still living home there. She said she would try and find the information out. I just told her it was an interesting story and would love to see the article. Other than that, her questions have stopped and her attachment has now seemed to turn in the opposite direction. God, I hate that place..
I got 'called out' so to speak at a little palce here in town, www.sleepattatame.com.
'Is she a natural?'
'Sure seems like it from here...'
As they left the tahouse. It was funny. they got really quiet when I came in with my sister
Yeah I think you can tell, but not only from look but from many different aspects.. lets face it.. unique breed
"The Devil knows his own" You can always find people that are like minded to yourself no matter what the persuasion is.
"And her beacon was lit like the fires at lucifer's gate"
I think RowenTears said it best. It's all about energy signatures. The fire is always lit in those who posses the gene, it just takes a trained awakend mine to see it.
Or at least to recognize it. Some unawakened can sense it, and some may follow it unconsciously. The awakened are the ones who truly understand what it is they sense. At least that's my opinion.
Its a feeling I get...It kinds of just draws their attention to me..If you know what I mean...I can walk into a room full of people and, eventualy I just know I have to talk to this person or they want to talk to me...It can be quite spooky to my gf sometimes
Not so much by looks, but the feeling and energy I pick up on, I can usually tell.
vampyres can sences each other without words or such..just as how many of us can tell a fake from the real thing..we just see the signs, hear it in their words and actions..
and some of us just know..no explination..we just do
With me, there's a certain vibe I get from them. Almost like static electricty. And it's always in their eyes.
just by studing a person you can learn many things, there is a all most all knowing feeling you get about someone the first time you meet them you ether know they are or you know their not.
I am not a vampire, and I can tell. its in the eyes. ever scince I was a child, Ive loved looking at peoples eyes, and I would always know if something was "different" about a person. not just vampires either. now a days, I have been getting better at telling who is who.
i can tell by how they speek, how they act, what they like (music books, etc.) and by looking into their eyes.
can usually tell by a vibe or a gut feeling, intuition
I may miss the ones that just dabble in everything...but I do sense those that are seriously interested.
I find, in my general dealings with the public, that I personaly can not tell who is what or interested in what.
Just the other day I saw a teenager dressed, in what you would precieve, as Goth. Happened to then see a sign that advertised a production for a play. He was in costume. Saw the same teenager the next day and you would never have thought you would see him dressed as he had the day before.
Personally I can tell when I'm close to a vampire, I can ussually tell weather its sang or psy as well, I'm guessing that its a scent or something that triggers my psy abilities allowing me to scense another.
I can't say that I can tell but I usually get impressions from people the first time I have contact with them. It's quite useful sometimes when I get a negative feeling or vibe.
yea, well sometimes... some people you can just tell and some people have aura about them but others sometimes you cannot tell and you would never suspect. i guess it depends on the person and whether they choose to flaunt their lifestyle or not
I cam sometimes tell, I don't know why or how. I can't explain it. Its a feeling. Also, Thank To LordOfNoctemAeternus For Being So Damn Intelligent.
cant really say exactly. just a certain darkish look and aura about them.
I think its been said and said and said but sometimes you can tell by the energy signature, while othertimes its more of a gut instinct kind of thing ...
I guess that would depend on their own personal methods of concealment...
There are many people who will tell you that they can tell what someone is like after first meeting, however this is usually very flawed. You cannot tell too much about a person from aura and eminance alone, it takes much more than that, simple tasks such as talking to them can provide you with much information.
I think you can definitely tell, and for me it's definitely something in their aura. They have that quality that makes everyone take notice of them and draws people to them.
well, take a look at the people on this site, some dress casual, and others goth it out. anyone can choose the lifestyle
sometimes i can tell there is like a auro that radiates from them but its harder for others
Yeah, if you can see auras, it's way easier, because the aura of a vampire is a lot different.
I can see auras and I can tell right off without even speaking with a person if theyre like me or not.
Oh, that they are INTERESTED in the lifestyle is quite easy.
i dont think i can really sence when someone is like me i just gravatate twords them.
There's definitely something. I can't really put my finger on it. We always seem to find eachother.
The situation is that it seems that people come up to me and all of the sudden ask me questions. I dont act, dress or speak differently from anyone else in the building. Well maybe a little, I am sort of the outcast there, but I cannot understand why they come to me and ask. I never say anything about my personal life to them. I dont even have the answers, that is why I am here.
I think it depends if you are in a state of hightened awearness or not. Sometimes I can feel that a person is different somehow or that the person in question sences something in me. sometimes I feel nothing from a person one day and something the next I dont understand it myself to be honest
Hey Frankie!
honestly you can never tell but unless you get to know someone deeply and then you can even tell if he is for real or fake. that is upto my opinion, and as for work it should alwayz be work, where i live and come from will never find another vampire, i live in a country where if i say to anyone i am a vampire people will laugh at me, yet ignorant they aretalking about, i was kicked out of a job when they noticed how sharp my teeth were and they said i am scaring the customers away yet i was born with them, i was working at Crepaway (Dinner) as a bar tender. so it is really creapy to give a way your personal life at work cause it can make you volunerable.
and where i live i am the only vampire in the whole country.....

Oh work is definetely work for me. I dont open my mouth there. I sit in my own little corner and do my work. Its just been strange that on say break time, or when I go outside for a cig that someone will come up to me and start a conversation like this. Dont get me wrong, I mean I am a person that will spout off my beliefs to a certain level, but not on the whole. But at work, I dont really say anything.
hmm although many vampires say they can sense a vampire for 100 percent... i doubt it... ive known for six years that i have realized what i am, but i havent changed neither my aims in live nor the way i am.
i dont show that i am a vampire and that with good reasons.. for those who want to blame me for that.. feel free..and never no one even if he is a vampire found it out... if you show your aura then someone might feel that you are, but if you dont want the world to know then it stays secret..
I dunno l would have to say it gets hard to tell sometimes, but l would bring this also down to the fact of where certain people live, as oobviously it is more common in some countries then others.
No I don't think I would be able to know that. Especially now a days where people just seem to follow the latest trend to fit in or not. It would take me talking with the person over a period of time to figure it out. And if they were sincere or not.
I would have to agree with most every one on this one. It a feeling you get and true kin knows true kin
I dunno - I've never actually thought about this before. I know one girl who thinks that she's a vampire... She bit me and and it wasn't the nice kind of bite - it hurt like fuck. So I guess maybe if someone bit me it would be a bit of a give a give away for me.
Well maybe what it comes down to, is that I am the one that needs to put up my guard. I must be letting things through without realizing it. I know one of the people is interested in Vampirism quite alot, as a matter of fact, after talking to her, she has joined this site, but the 2 others, well they know nothing at all. I will once again, be aware of myself at all times.. It has to be me..
After to speaking to someone, I am able to read them. I can tell if they have a brightness about their soul...or all i can describe it as is a muddiness. Not dark, but i mixture of light and dark, confusion.
well...as i see it..you can tell..because most of them give off that they are..or that they are into the life style or not..but most do not give off signs that they are..because it makes them more Mysterious to those that seek..or those that watch them..and also..sometimes body movement is a god way of telling as well.that's if you know how to seek for it..or see it.

Well I can't really figure out if someone is into a certain lifestyle or even a vamire just by looking at them.
I do however tend to analyze people i meet ....figuring out if they would be someone i would be friends with or someone who would stab me in the back. Other than that the only thing i do when i look at people.
yes I can tell by the vibes I get. I can read peple real easaly, but the ones I cant are usualy confused on who they are themselves.
i just seem to be drawn to dark beings it is natural for me to be close to them
I dont think i can tell if someone is a vampire, cause i have never met one. at least nobody ever told me he/she is one.
I just know i can tell if someone is evil, cause i start to feel sick.
You know, I've always been good at reading people. I've never just known they were a Vampire, but I have gotten the feeling that they could be.
But I think you guys have a point. You more then likely will be attracted to people of your kind, even if you don't know it yet. I.E.: Gut Instinct.
Well it depends...
I mean what are we looking at..
because I look like the "goth" type.. most think I am a vampire because of that. But really I am a cannibal.. There is a difference..
As for me, I dont know until I ask or they tell me...
~Freak13~
"We are all Prey"
i know that i cant really tell... i mean unless they just scream it... but at the same time no one knew about me.... been like this since i was 15 and people are just now finding out and im 22
this is an intruiging thread. i'm not sure if you can actually tell with most people, but if there's a way i'm extremely interested in finding out how... i'd love to meet (in real life) people that are into the lifestyle.
its not easy at first..but actually ppl do sense that yr different thus yes you can tell in the end
you can tell by looking into their eyes, but you have to look deep into them to see their souls and what they really belive, many can pretend and hope to become a vampire or imatate the lifestyle, but very few people have the true craving, and embracment capabilities to the idia and or lifestyle
It takes me a short while to figure out if they are, and if they say they are, if they are for real. Some people that say they are a vampire you can tell they aren't. I think its alot easier to tell if someone isn't than if they are.
although i dont pay too much attention, im sure id get a feeling.
i beleive its possible to tell of a certain vibe they give up like an aura but to the most extent you cant really gauage the quality of there soul
I think instead of a long post, I will just say that I agree with LordOfNoctemAeternus. He very eliquently illerated my ideas and thoughts as well.
See, i just think its a feeling you get when your around them. if you click well or not. You can always tell but i dont think you can by jsut looking at a person..its what is inside that is what is their real idenity
I can do it with people who do enegry work they kind of have a glow about them. It's harder if it's just a life style for them.
Yes i can tell when there are other vampires around, with me i can tell through there eyes if they are or aren,t i can,t put it into words but its there eyes.
I didn`t came across with such situation, but I`m pretty sure that there is something different in the body structure, in the look...
i can simply tell when i can be comfortable and myself around someone.
