Step 1
A good place to start is 由 reviewing other vampire fiction. Read the folklore, read the classics as well as current vampire books. Watch the 电影院 and the televisions shows. Then forget about everything else you've read and seen and develop a vampire universe that is yours.
Step 2
Always remember that a horror novel's job is to be horrific. Sometimes the humans win in horror novels, sometimes they're overcome 由 the evil vampires, but win 或者 lose, the vampire's the bad guy, no matter how glamorously portrayed.
Step 3
What makes a good vampire character? Sensuality, intelligence, and a touch of mystery. The vampire appeals because this creature looks human and yet has a nonhuman perspective on the world. The most important thing to do is establish the rules of what your 吸血鬼 can and can't do, and live 由 those rules. Always be consistent.
Step 4
It's important to surround your vampire with realistic details that help the reader feel that the world in which the story takes place is believably recognizable as the real world the reader inhabits.
