The history of vampires has always been a mystery that has not had many solutions.

Although it is one of the oldest mythical creatures, the origin of vampires remains a great unknown for thousands of years. Waiting for the Delphi Prophet to be found, people get a glimpse of the vampire's early days.

Only vampires can create a new vampire, so according to logic, the history of vampires must start from a Lord of the Vampires , who will create second generation Vampires. The question is, if no vampire bites, how can Vampires be present in the world?

The answer lies in the Delphi Bible , specifically here in the chapter 'The Vampire Bible'.

Accordingly, the first vampire not born was a vampire but a man named Ambrogio . He was originally an Italian adventurer but destined to Delphi, Greece. However, a series of events and curse turned Ambrogio into the first vampire in history.

First, the sun god Apollo in his rage cursed Ambrogio that his skin would burn if exposed to sunlight. Ambrogio's bad luck has not ended when he bet his soul with Hades , the god of hell. The next curse came from Apollo's sister, Artemis hunting goddess , who claimed Ambrogio's skin was also burned if she touched silver.

However, Artemis soon felt sorry for Ambrogio and gave him the gift of immortality. The curse is still preserved, but he can live forever in his existing form. Moreover, Artemis gives Ambrogio the strength and speed to become the second best predator in the three worlds, just after Artemis.

Also according to the Delphi, Ambrogio hunted swans and used their blood as ink, writing love letters to Selena .

Ambrogio later returned to Italy in the form of a powerful vampire. Legend follows him to Florence, where Ambrogio created his first vampire army .

At the moment, the history books are not known much about this army. Historians argue that the ancients worshiped power and immortality and were willing to exchange their souls for those things. Hades's curse will chase all new vampires: their souls will be imprisoned in hell, where they can descend to regain the soul but will never be able to return to the world forever.

What happened to Ambrogio and his disciples continued to be covered with a mist after the Delphi story ended. Many historians believe that Ambrogio is still living somewhere in Florence.

Today, vampires become a source of hot, attractive, abundant topics for writers, from Stephanie Meyer, Anne Rice to Stephen King. The rise of the "vampire culture" , according to scientists, is due to the gap between science and superstition.
