吸血鬼 ヴァンパイア
A being in folklore who feeds on the [[blood]] of living creatures. Notable characteristics include [[fangs]], predatory eyes, and [[pale skin]].

Although typically described as undead, a vampire could be a living person. Popularized in Europe in the 18th century and codified in literature in the 19th as a Western folkloric being distinct from its roots.
