We Are All Vampires
II — Vampires Are Not Created by Society; They Are Born into Society
← Karl Swainston / We Are All Vampires
Vampires are not created by society; they are born into society.
They are freakish forms of nature, devouring all energies that exist in life, particularly the positive energies.
Everything in society is energy. Everything we see around us is energy.
Everything is vibrational energy. All the creations of the world, the computer, and the bridge you crossed on the way to work were once energies of thought within a creator’s mind.
The World, the Universe, and the Galaxy are all energy.
Even a brick lying on the floor has some form of energy. We cannot survive without energy.
The energy within us is the life force, which can be positive and negative.
Human energy is both positive and negative. All of us have within us positive and negative energies; there are no voids or vacuums.
Most of us are able to generate positive energy within ourselves.
The vampire is a freak because it cannot generate positive energy. It has to feed on the positive energies of others.
Consider how, when you are with a person, or an event that exudes tremendous positive energy, you almost instantly begin to feed off that energy and become positively energised.
Whether it be a person, music, a show, or a drama, you can feel the energy within you change from negativity to positive vibrational energy.
In contrast, have you ever felt drained when in the presence of a person, sucking out the energy in you so that you feel almost exhausted?
Your positive body vibrations become almost nil. What does have a pulse of energy within you will almost certainly now be a negative vibration.
This event is the action of the modern vampire, draining you of personal and positive energy.
It is terrible to admit, but these vampires can often be persons near you: a partner, spouse, child, or boss.
It is as though we are only there for their benefit. Our actions and daily life are towards the creature’s bliss, not our own.
Their bliss is the positive vibrations of life and the energy they take from us.
The modern vampire is a master at controlling this action of usurping the positive vibrations from those near it and around it.

About Karl Swainston
Karl Swainston is a writer and storyteller whose work is forged from a life lived across the North of England and far beyond. Growing up on a Leeds council estate in the 1960s, Karl's journey was anything but linear. By the age of thirty, he had already lived a dozen lives: from the rigors of grammar school to a degree in Latin, a stint as a fishmonger, a period of discovery living in Marseille, and a return to the hustle of London. Whether working as a postman, a builder, or competing as a county-level chess player, he was, above all, an avid reader—constantly documenting the world around him. This restless spirit continued into his professional life. Karl later taught in Bradford, where he ran a specialist unit for 244 of the most excluded students from across the region—young people whom even the local Pupil Referral Units could not accommodate. Working alongside his old friend Malcolm, Karl spent his days navigating the volatility of Bradford's most aggressive and dysfunctional teenagers. Throughout his life, Karl has been an avid runner and has always shared his home with a rotating cast of beloved dogs and cats—companions who have been constant witnesses to his work. As a writer, Karl's range is as expansive as his history. He works across a wide breadth of genres, including fiction and short stories, autobiography and memoir, biography, non-fiction, and metaphysical writing, as well as providing sharp commentary, opinion, analysis, and essays. Whether writing about his years managing the Harrogate Arms or offering insights from his current adopted home in South East India, where he lives in a simple village with his dog, Bambi, Karl's voice reflects the full, untidy, and deeply human breadth of life. He continues to draw on the rich, decades-long tapestry of his experiences to tell stories that matter, proving that no matter where you live, the human story remains the same.
