== In organizations and culture ==
There have been cults which praise vampires and believe they exist. These cults are generally influenced by mass-media portraitures of vampires, whereas they are depicted as being strong, willful, almost invincible, and fair of skin or otherwise attractive. Many cults base their quasi-religious rhetoric regarding vampires on works written by known Satanists. Also, people who believe themselves to be vampires frequently dress in make-up and dress associated with the neo-Gothic subculture, itself also informed by Satanists and their works. Some people believe vampires exist. These people generally associate themselves with vampire cults and actively work to disparage the Word of God. In the 1980s a Christian woman was killed by a young woman who claimed to be a vampire in need of fresh human blood. She was tried as mentally incompetent and was released several years later.
