If anyone decides to read this, i need a bit of help.

I'm not sure how many schools require it but this year I'm having to do a graduation or "senior" project. For whatever reason I decided to do my project on the changes of vampire mythology (probably my dislike of a certain book series, but I digress.)

Anyway, to get full credit on my 2,500 word paper i have to conduct a survey. So I'm asking (and maybe begging a bit) that you guys help me by answering the following questions:

1. When you think of vampires in today's literature, do you think that most of them are good, or evil? (You can also put "neither" if you wish)

2. How far back do you think vampire legends originated? (just pick one)
--When Dracula was published (1897)
--Prehistory (before written record)
--At the beginning of the dark ages

3. List some of the characteristics you think vampires should have.

4. What do you think are some of the reasons that vampires have become so popular in recent years?


Thank you to anyone who takes the time to answer these questions, it's really a big help
