You must go to *snapefans* and read the vampire theories on that 
site.  Look for message 272 and 273, my theories ;-).  I personally 
lean toward Snape being one.  I hope you will post your info on that 
site also.  I do believe you will get more replies over there.  I 
can't wait to see what you have come up with.  We are, however, in 
the minority on this <g>  That's fine with me!


Regarding the Foe-Glass:

I didn't mention the Foe-Glass in my posts but I think it is a valid 
point.  With everything going on at this time, why is he so concerned 
with his reflection?  He might also be checking to see if anyone else 
is coming.

Please hurry ^_~

If Snape is a vampire, I don't know if we will even see it until book 
7.  He must have his reasons for hiding what he is and I think he 
will continue to do so.

Nope!  The vampire issue and the Snape/Lily theory can cause some 
heated debates between Snape lovers.

Why can't JKR make up her own type of vampires?  I think that is the 
stumbling block for many people.  They are determined to go by what 
Anne Rice or others have written. I would love to see what JKR would 
do with vampires.  It just seems there are far too many comments 
about vampires in the books.  Surely they will come into play.
   
 Plus..."--even stopper death--"...  Oh yes...


Interesting take on *stopper death*.  We also discussed the meaning 
of this on snapefans with different responses.

Can't wait to hear your takes on this subject!
