Welcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 360 - Dracula at Church
Welcome back to Dracula at Church - and if you have not listened to the previous episode, it might really help you to understand some fascinating ideas about the unintended role of vampires in religion.
Now the Church's depiction of vampires as demonic entities provided solace to believers by framing these creatures within a Christian moral and spiritual framework, offering both explanations for their - and remedies for protection. This approach reassured the faithful in the face of fears surrounding death, evil, and the supernatural. I guess the Church realized that there would always be a group of people who believed in vampires - so they basically designed a depiction that offered comfort.
Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
