What would be proof of the existance of psychic vampires?

Question

People keep posting in the M+F section that they wouldn't believe in real vampires without proof. IMO, being skeptical and wanting proof is good. But what would consitute proof for you?

Let's start with psychic vampirism as a theoretical phenomenon. How would you try to prove or disprove it's existance?

Would Kirilian photos like these be proof?

Would aura photos like these be proof?

Don Henrie and a couple helpers supposedly drained a skeptic of enough energy on an episode of "Mad, Mad House" make the guy collapse. If this trick could be repeated by other self-professed psi-vamps, would that be proof?

I read a suggestion of using heat sensing devices, like those used to look for ghosts, to see if heat is transfered from a donor to a psi-vamp. What do you think of that as a test?

Any other ideas?

Answer 1

well u could always wait to be attacked in u'r sleep?

that may be proof enough?

the idea of the test may sound cool but in reality it may prove to be bad cos there is a lot of heat sources that can be drained fromand that give off heat ad so it may interfere with the device...

it may prove to be a very bad way so get scientific evidence...

Answer 2

No, black and white pictures of something that can only be photographed in color is only proof that pictures were altered or completely fake.

Answer 3

a example of psychic vampirism . i have had a good nights sleep regrouped with my angel guides . i get up out of bed and go and walk the dog. at the park i am at, a person comes over and starts talking. suddenly i start yawning. that person may as well be a vampire. they have come in to close of my aura and with unclear motives. confusion saps vitality. TRICK?  come over and listen to me ramble on. then tell me how your energy feels. a person can walk into a room and put their hand on the window. then walk out. two days later i can go into that room with that person and tell them how they felt when they put their hand on the window two days ago... a lot more than heat gets transfered. if one suddenly experiances heat the theory is one has a lot of dead people around one hooked into ones concept-s.

Answer 4

Maybe if Larry King interviewed one.

Answer 5

Once read a great book that described modern day vampires. It went on to describe a kindly old aunt that stayed home all day and took care of the house while the rest of the family went on to work and to school. Late at night after dinner this aunt would sit quietly in the living room and knit. The others in the house would sit around the room chatting, and one by one they would just suddenly grow tired and drift off. The book was trying to say that the aunt robbed these people of their energy as she stayed up late until the wee hours of the night happily knitting, never growing weary herself.  This same book cited another example of a snake and a mouse, they claimed to have taken readings of the energy of the mouse and the snake separately, each had their own readings. When the snake was ready to feed, it would mesmerize t he mouse, and slowly take its energy, until he finally ate him in which the mouse energy was slowly absorbed into the snakes body energy. This may be based on true fact or not however it is interesting food for thought on modern day vamperism.

I do not know how Kirilian  photography would fit into this picture so I am thinking that is not a good example of vampirism.

Answer 7

thanks for those links ive been try ing to find stuff about kirlien photography 2 sho my science teacher. but i can never remember how to spell it to look it up.

though i want to prove that we vampires exist, i dont wanna tell her i am one.

Answer 8

Unfortunately, the examples you give may be convincing for some, but I have a different take on it. While the aspect of manipulating the energy around you is plausible, the psychic vampires claim that they "need" to do this (draw energy from outside sources) is not, in my opinion. I feel that "energy high" can become like any other addiction, not necessary for life but repeated for the pleasurable experience. It is easy to see  how maintaining this experience can be viewed as "necessary" by the person that is the "vampire". I can get up and go about my business each day without coffee, but I really like to have the caffeine. It becomes a psychological and slightly physical addiction. "Caffeine deficient" is a humorous term for this but it shouldn't be constrewed to mean that I actually MUST have caffeine to survive. Likewise, I believe that most of those describing themselves as psi vamps, aren't. As I interpret the phenomena, a true psychic vampire is only called "vampire" for his effect on those around him NOT because he derives benefit from his actions. Because a "vampire" of this type creates chaos in the normally even flow of energy around us, we respond by resisting chaos, thus "draining" ourselves. If for some reason, the "vamp" thrives on the chaotic energy, it is not necessarily because of "need", more likely it is a "fix" for the addiction. This is only my view of the psi vampire, and I know it is not popular with the vampires, although some of those here that call themselves by this name are persons that I have great respect for. I simply believe more strongly in nuances and convolutions of human behavior than in the vampire label.

A convincing proof would be to have one or more of them in an open laboratory where lots of doubting scientists could look at them, examine them, photograph them, and use all of the other well-accepted tools of modern science to study them.  Then the information would have to be published in a peer-reviewed journal of good reputation, such as Science or Nature.  After that, these observations plus new ones would have to be made by different observers and published in peer-reviewed journals.  Repeat as needed.
