evil lives they know only too well the dreadful fate awaiting them in the afterlife, and are prepared to go to any lengths to sustain a semblance of life in their bodies in order to remain earthbound. (8)
......最重要的是，"真正的"吸血鬼们是那种极端厌恶不可避免的肉体死亡的人们。他们非常了解在他们极端邪恶的生命之后会有多么可怕的命运等待着他们，他们也宁愿付出任意代价，只要能够披着生命的伪装，继续留在人间。（8）
The question still remains, how do they die and yet live? Philip Rohr, a prominent scholar of the occult, framed the same question, and though he was not willing to attribute this power of life to the Devil, he did recognize the possibility of their resurrection through "...Divine permission, with the help of some devilish agency" (A. Masters 179-180). The Antichrist uses his supposed resurrection as evidence of his immortality, and by being the antithesis of Christ himself, promises to share this life with those who choose to follow him. The vampire claims immortality through blood, and can share it with others through the same method by which he takes life away. After all, for the vampire, "...the blood is the life..." (Deuteronomy 12:23).
问题还是没有解决，他们是如何在死后依然活着的？Philip Rohr，一个对神秘之事有卓越研究的学者，提出了同样的问题。虽然他并没有把它归功于恶魔的力量，但是他认识到吸血鬼们的复生是通过"......神圣的许诺，伴随着某些恶魔中介的帮助" (A. Masters 179-180)。反基督者利用他的伪复活作为自己永生的证据，并作为基督的敌人，他许诺给他的追随者们一部分这样的能力。吸血鬼则通过血来获取永生，并用同样的方法，和被他取走生命的人们，一起分享这种能力。毕竟，对于吸血鬼来说，"......血是生命......"（申命记 12：23）
On the topic of blood, the most widely agreed upon characteristic of all vampires seems to be their dependence upon it as their main source of su英语论文网 【http://www.51lunwen.org】stenance. Though this trait is not as prevalent in depictions of the Antichrist, it does nonetheless surface. The Apocalypse of Elijah, for example, speaks of the Antichrist's pursuance of the virgin Tabitha saying, "...He will pursue her up to the regions of the sun set. He will suck her blood in the evening. And he will cast her upon the temple, and she will become a healing for the people. She will rise up at dawn..." (Wintermute 747). Likewise, a 1643 Thanksgiving sermon before the House of Commons repeatedly referred to the Antichrist beast, along with the Whore of Babylon, as having drunk the blood of the saints and prophets (Marshall 12, 20-27). This is further evidenced in Revelation 18:24 on the subject of the Babylonian Whore: "And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth." Moreover, the drinking of blood can also be seen as a perversion of the Christian communion:
在血的问题上，有一种最广泛的说法是吸血鬼们依靠血来作为他们最主要的食物以获取生存。不过在反基督者中，这种特性并不那么普遍，虽然表面上他们也吸血。例如，在小说《Apocalypse of Elijah》里，讲到反基督者对处女 Tabitha的追求时，写到，（译注，此段原文偶看不太懂......）"......他将追求她直到太阳落山，他将在傍晚吸食她的血液。他将会把她置于寺庙之顶。而她将具有疗治众人的能力。她会在拂晓时升起......" (Wintermute 747)。相似的，1643年感恩节在国会下议院前的一次布道上，反基督的野兽和巴比伦的淫妇一次又一次的被相提并论，因为他们饮过圣人们和先知们的血(Marshall 12, 20-27)。这进一步证明了启示录18：24里对巴比伦的淫妇的叙述："先知和圣徒，并地上一切被杀之人的血，都在这城里看见了。"此外，饮血也可以看出是作为对基督教团体的颠覆：
...the bloodsucking—not only can one account for it in terms of the history of sacrificial blood (see Agazzi 1977: 11-31) but one could also see
