Andreas Bathory has previously revealed warlord Vlad Tepes visited him in a dream, and spoken about life in the grounds of Bran Castle in Transylvania. Now, speaking to The Mirror, he has opened up about his 'vampirism' - including the peace he finds from sleeping in a coffin - and his hope to open a hotel for others like him in Transylvania. "The modern vampire community is now very focused on the 'material nature of life'and based upon human instincts like sexual practices, human emotion," he explained. Andreas lives in Transylvania ( Andreas Bathory) Where he follows traditional practices ( Andreas Bathory) "But we here in Transylvania for many centuries are searching for more than merely human nature and human desires and lusts." He was clear to emphasise he has "nothing against" the practice others choose to follow, even if they do not share his own focus on tradition. Andreas follows a number of traditions that many of us might recognise from folklore or legend. However, he says he does not drink blood and discourages people from this due to it being a "dangerous health risk" and a "dangerous spiritual practice". As such he says blood isn't actually needed to keep a vampire alive as it is merely a "metaphor representing the living force of life" that was taken from mythology. Conversely, vampires also need not fear sunlight, crosses, garlic or mirrors, according to Andreas. But some do still enjoy sleeping in coffins, including Andreas, who claims the practice helps him to connect with unse){kind=link}
