Vampires & Werewolves: Similarities and Differences
Vampires and werewolves are familiar monsters to most of us. They star in movies and are popular
Halloween costume choices. However, these mystical creatures also share deeper similarities. Both
vampires and werewolves are shape-shifting creatures. They are thought to change form from a
human to an animal. In the case of a vampire, an undead human can change into a bat at will,
especially on a dark and spooky night.
Werewolves, on the other hand, do not have any control over their transformation. They
shift shape from human form to wolf-like form whenever they are in the presence of a full moon.
Perhaps because vampires are thought to have control over their form, while werewolves do not, each
creature has a distinctive set of personality characteristics when stereotyped in film and literature.
Vampires are seen as cold, both figuratively and literally. They are capable of regarding
normal humans placidly, with icy sharp logic. The iconic image of a vampire is of a pale man in a cape
laughing creepily or simply staring. In contrast, werewolves are seen as passionate and almost
animalistic. The iconic image of a werewolf is of a man caught mid-transformation, ripping at his shirt
as his body turns from human into fierce and bulky animal. These two creatures also differ in terms of
the type of threat they present to humans.
Vampires actively seek humans to kill (or to turn into vampires, depending on the story).
They require regular meals of fresh human blood in order to survive, and so they act as literal silent
predators. The fear that we feel when watching a vampire movie is the fear of what unknown and
alien force might wait hidden in the darkness. Werewolves are not typically described as actively
stalking humans, and indeed are often shown as very loving to humans when the moon is new.
However, they can hurt human beings when they are in wolf form. The fear evoked at a werewolf
movie is the fear of betrayal, the fear of those we trust and care for transforming into something
utterly different and destructive.
In conclusion, both of these monsters have their own similarities and differences and their
existences are doubted. Still, they are popular among us as they are promoted in drama series and
movies.
