Vampire \Vam"pire\, n. [F. vampire (cf. It. vampiro, G. & D.       vampir), fr. Servian vampir.] [Written also {vampyre}.]       1. A blood-sucking ghost; a soul of a dead person             superstitiously believed to come from the grave and wander             about by night sucking the blood of persons asleep, thus             causing their death. This superstition is now prevalent in             parts of Eastern Europe, and was especially current in             Hungary about the year 1730.                         The persons who turn vampires are generally wizards,                      witches, suicides, and persons who have come to a                      violent end, or have been cursed by their parents or                      by the church,                                    --Encyc. Brit.          2. Fig.: One who lives by preying on others; an extortioner;             a bloodsucker.          3. (Zo[94]l.) Either one of two or more species of South             American blood-sucking bats belonging to the genera             {Desmodus} and {Diphylla}. These bats are destitute of             molar teeth, but have strong, sharp cutting incisors with             which they make punctured wounds from which they suck the             blood of horses, cattle, and other animals, as well as             man, chiefly during sleep. They have a c[91]cal appendage             to the stomach, in which the blood with which they gorge             themselves is stored.          4. (Zo[94]l.) Any one of several species of harmless tropical             American bats of the genus {Vampyrus}, especially {V.             spectrum}. These bats feed upon insects and fruit, but             were formerly erroneously supposed to suck the blood of             man and animals. Called also {false vampire}.          {Vampire bat} (Zo[94]l.), a vampire, 3.
