Always Relevant

If you're wondering what ever happened to vampgeist.com or the Vampgeist Project, be assured that we are continuing with our work for the real vampires among us. As an online entity, we've elected to collect the works available at the site here, in this easy to read blog format. Check the contents to see what entries catch your interest. First and foremost, Vampgeist is about freedom--of being, of expression, of gathering.

"Vampgeist?"

Is it catching?

Should I be scared?
Can I bring my mother?


You may have heard the expression "Zeitgeist" which literally breaks into Zeit (time, era, an age) and Geist (spirit). But instead of being the spirit of an age, Vampgeist is the spirit of the vampire--who we are, what we're seeking, what we're doing.  It's very real and it's happening right now.
 
More importantly, Vampgeist has been coined as a term which is more or less synonymous with prana or lifeforce.  The only difference is that Vampgeist is this living energy as it pertains to the vampire and to vampiric practice.  In other words, it's subject-specific.
 
You may already be aware of what is called the OVC or the online vampire community.  Vampgeist exists in part to serve the members of this community, but it is not part of said community.  Vampgeist is independent of all ties and influences as it operates as a mediating entity between vampires of whatever community and the world beyond.
 
We are adamant about not bringing any biases or baggage with us when we are working for Vampgeist.  There is no favored few and no disreputable dregs--we are working on a level playing field.  We're checking personal gripes at the door.  Impossible?  Perhaps.  But still it's a worthwhile goal.
 
The individuals and groups and entities that have come together for this project have decided to be called the Vampgeist Cabal.  Of course the word "cabal" has a sinister life of its own, but we believe it seems to suit our subject matter better than "group" or "team" or, dogs forbid, "community".
