  1. why don’t you find out by yourself?
    it is bad to cheat.

  2. The vampirism in Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a symbol of Victorian sexual desires.

  3. Vampirism as an extended metaphor for perverse sexuality. And following up on that, the ambiguous sexuality of the Count. Since he had a male victim, Renfield, if the sexuality analogy is considered that would indicate bisexuality. That and the fact he claimed Jonathan Harker as “his,” to his brides.

  4. It seems that humans run on sexual lust and the need to belong, and vampires run on blood lust.

    Vampires use: 1. human sexual desires against humans to entice them to the vampire. Then, the vampire, pretending they are interested sexually in the human is close enough to kill them for their blood. Do you remember in the (bad, bad) movie when Keanu Reeves declared he was impotent with fear when the female vampires were trying to entice him? This is one of the few times a human could resist.
    2. Need to belong: Have you noticed that in other vampire stories the strongest vampire has intense charisma and charm? Even the most manly men can easily become enthralled by the male head-vampire’s seduction.

    Further, vanity can get the better of humans – we want to be young and beautiful forever. This is another temptation vampires tend to use.

    So, for your thesis you can use “The Exploitation of Human Frailty” as your thesis.
