Vampires

"'Vampires. These undead creatures, though not as trustworthy as other supernatural creatures, aren't without their good moments. They lust for blood for nutrients and sustenance but will also indulge, interestingly, on the sweet delicacy chocolate. They're stronger and faster then humans.' - The entry about vampires in David's journal."Vampires are undead creatures. They were once humans before being turned into vampires though some can be born vampires.

History
All vampires are descendants of the Arch Vampires, a race of powerful creatures descended from the bat God Camazotz. Camazotz wanted his children to be some of the most powerful creatures on Earth so he granted them special abilities like speed and strength but this came at a price: his children would need to feed on the blood of the living.
