Framed Vampire Art

In folklore, vampires are undead creatures that visit the loved ones but also strangers, as they constantly try to appease their insatiable appetite for blood. Vampiric entities are common with most cultures and the term has been around for centuries, but it gained traction 200 years ago. That’s why, the representations of vampires differ greatly depending on the time when the painting was created and Framed Vampire Art covers a broad spectrum and an equally impressive timeframe.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula brought the nightmarish creatures back in the spotlight and they’ve been at the cornerstone of many horror films in the 20th century. Some of the Framed Vampire Art is dedicated to the central characters of these movies, with vampire novels also inspiring some of the latest horror films. Over the last couple of years, filmmakers took a steep departure from the traditional version of vampires and chose to add more human attributes to these creatures. TV shows such as True Blood and feature films including Twilight have developed a cult following.
