A vampire is created when a person ingests vampire blood, but the transformation is not complete until they feed on human blood.<ref name="one20">[[1.20 Dead Man's Blood]]</ref><ref name="six05">[[6.05 Live Free or Twihard]]</ref> Once turned, they suffer from [[Bloodlust (Pad of Definitions)|bloodlust]] and must feed on blood, human or animal, to survive.<ref name="two03">[[2.03 Bloodlust]]</ref> In rare cases, the transformation results in bloodshot eyes as seen with [[Gordon Walker]] and [[Alex Jones]]<ref name="three07">[[3.07 Fresh Blood]]</ref><ref name="nine19">[[9.19 Alex Annie Alexis Ann]]</ref>. Unlike folkloric vampires, they do not require an invitation to enter a home and are not killed by sunlight, however prolonged exposure to sunlight can be painful. They also prefer to live in packs in locations called nests, and will mate for life.<ref name="one20"/> After death, like all monsters, vampire [[souls]] go to [[Purgatory]].<ref name="six07">[[6.07 Family Matters]]</ref>
[[File:VampPOV.jpg|right|350px|right|thumb|[[Gordon Walker]]'s POV after being turned into a vampire.]]
A vampire must feed on blood to survive — preferably human blood — although they can subsist on animal blood.<ref name="two03"/> Some vampires, such as those formerly led by [[Sheriff Len Cuse]], also devour organs and flesh, as part of a new age philosophy related to not wasting any part of the kill.<ref>[[10.08 Hibbing 911]]</ref>
===Powers and abilities===
* Enhanced senses – Vampires are able to smell humans and vampires over long distances, once a vampire has your scent, they have it for life. Vampires also have the ability to see in pitch darkness, and have been known to exhibit an animalistic eyeshine effect (only shown in [[1.20 Dead Man's Blood]] and [[12.14 The Raid]]).<ref name="one20"/>
===Weaknesses===
* Burning saffron, skunk's cabbage and trillium blocks a vampires scent. John Winchester gives these to Dean to put on the fire. He also tells Dean to dust their clothes with the ashes to stand a chance of not being detected.<ref name="one20"/>. Sam and dean later use it when hiding from [[GordonAnti-Vamp Device]] <ref>[[3– A cylindrical device created by the British Men of Letters that emits a smoke that is toxic to vampires, killing them via suffocation.07 Fresh Blood]]</ref>
* [[The Colt]] – A special bullet fired from the Colt can kill a vampire.<ref name="one20"/> The gun is capable of even killing the [[Alpha Vampire]].<ref>[[12.14 The Raid]]</ref>
* [[Dead man's blood]] – A syringe of blood from a corpse can paralyze a vampire and cause wounds that are slow to heal.<ref name="one20"/><ref name="two03"/> More recently, hunters have taken to coating bullets with dead man's blood to achieve the same effect.
[[File:VampireCure.jpg|right|350px|thumb|The cure for vampirism.]]
* Decapitation – Cutting off the head of a vampire will kill it.<ref name="one20"/>
* Scent masking – Burning saffron, skunk's cabbage and trillium blocks a vampires scent. John Winchester gives these to Dean to put on the fire. He also tells Dean to dust their clothes with the ashes to stand a chance of not being detected.<ref name="one20"/>. Sam and Dean later use it when hiding from [[Gordon]] <ref>[[3.07 Fresh Blood]]</ref>
* Severe physical harm – Serious physical injuries, while not fatal to vampires, can cause them debilitating harm for a time. With enough blood they can heal,<ref>[[8.05 Blood Brother]]</ref> but it can be extremely effective in the short term.
* [[Smiting]] – Angels can burn vampires from the inside out with a touch, killing them.<ref name="six19">[[6.19 Mommy Dearest]]</ref>

===[[1.20 Dead Man's Blood]]===
:''Vampires:'' [[Beau (Vampire)|Beau]], [[Kate (vampire)|Kate]], [[Jenny (Dead Man's BloodVampire)|Jenny]] and [[Luther]][[Daniel Elkins]] attracts the attention of a group of vampires, led by [[Kate (vampire)|Kate]], who follow him home and kill him after a struggle. They take [[the Colt]] from him and Kate presents it to her mate and patriarch, [[Luther]], who scolds Kate at first for killing a [[hunter]]. The vampires live in an old barn where they capture tourists and feed on them, turning one such victim, [[Jenny (Dead Man's BloodVampire)|Jenny]], into one of their own. Their nest is invaded by the Winchesters, where Kate is lured after them, only to be captured and injected with [[dead man's blood]] while another vampire is killed. [[John Winchester]] uses her as a bargaining chip to force Luther to hand over the Colt, after which the vampires try to kill John. At the same time, [[Sam]] and [[Dean]] rescue the vampire's captives, killing the vampire guarding them and then go to help their father. Sam and Dean take down two vampires with dead man's blood soaked arrows and presumably later kill them. John is able to kill Luther with the Colt, while only Kate and Jenny escape alive.

===[[6.05 Live Free or Twihard]]===
:''Vampires:'' [[Alpha Vampire]], [[Boris]], [[Dean Winchester]], [[Kristen]] and [[Robert]]
In Limestone, Illinois, [[Sam]] and [[Dean]] investigate the disappearances of several young women. They discover that the most recent victim was obsessed with ''Twiligh''-style vampires, and that she was communicating with someone who claimed to be a vampire online. At the same time, a blood bank van is robbed. Sam and Dean go to a club called the Black Rose, the girl's last destination, and discover vampires trying to "recruit" new members. Sam kills one vampire, but Dean is turned by a vamp named [[Boris]]. Sam intervenes, belatedly, and chases the vampire away. The Winchesters return to their hotel room, and Sam calls [[Samuel Campbell|Samuel]]. Dean, who is prepared to be killed by Samuel, sneaks away to bid [[Lisa]] goodbye. He is nearly overwhelmed by his hunger, but resists and returns to Sam and Samuel. Samuel surprises Dean by revealing a cure in his grandfather's hunting journal. In order for it to work, Dean must consume no human blood, and must acquire the blood of the vampire that turned him, so Dean goes to the nest of the vampires with a syringe of [[dead man's blood]].
At the nest, a "recruiter" named [[Robert]] offers [[Dean]] blood, which he declines, and reveals that they are not longer allowed to kill people. Dean meets Boris, and tries to stab him with the dead man's blood, but Boris is too quick. Before Boris can kill Dean, all the vampires collapse, Dean included. He has a shared vision of the [[Alpha Vampire]], and perceives that the [[Alpha]] wishes to build an army. When he awakes, Dean must fight the vampires in the nest. He eventually kills all the members—except one beheaded by Sam and Samuel—and gets Boris's blood. Samuel prepares the cure and Dean drinks it. He vomits blood and passes out, but re-awakens as a human.
Afterwards, the incapacitated vampire is killed and as Annie never fed, Sam and Dean are able to use Celia's blood to create the cure and save her though the cure will make her sick for a few days.

Len had left the nest as he got tired of the cries of their prey and started feeding off of blood bags and protecting humans as a sheriff. They kill and consume two people, stealing one's belt and the other's wallet. Despite not being part of the nest anymore, Len does his best to protect them, but the kills draw the attention of [[Sheriff Jody Mills]] who is at his sheriff's retreat. [[File:Starr'sNest.jpg|thumb|right|350px|[[Starr]]'s nest hold their next victims captive.]] She calls the Winchesters to let them know and investigates the kills. After Len is seen over a victim by [[Sheriff Donna Hanscum]], the Winchesters and the sheriffs track the vampires to an old farmhouse where they are captured. [[Starr]] explains the nest's way of operating and tries to get Len to rejoin them by killing the Winchesters and the two sheriffs. However, Len refuses so Star kills him. Dean breaks free and kills Catfish and the other vampire while Star goes after Jody for knocking her down. However, Donna kills her to save Jody.

:''Vampire:'' [[Jenny (Vampire)|Jenny]]
A group of masked vampires kill a man, Lyle, cut out his wife's tongue and kidnap their children. Investigating, Sam and Dean recognize the wife's drawing of the masks from [[John's Journal]] which documents his unsuccessful attempt to hunt the vampires in 1986. Using the pattern documented by John in his journal, Sam and Dean are able to intercept two vampires at their next attack spot, killing one and capturing the other. The vampire admits that his nest kidnaps, raises them up right and then "juices" them because they don't snack on "fast food." In return for a quick death, the vampire directs the Winchesters to the nest.
At the nest, the Winchesters rescue the children, but face off against the vampires who overpower them. One of the vampires is revealed to be [[Jenny (Vampire)|Jenny]], the young woman that [[Luther]] and [[Kate (vampire)|Kate]] had turned into a vampire during Sam and Dean's first vampire hunt fourteen years before. As Jenny prepares to feed on Dean, a recovered Sam kills her from behind and fight breaks out. The Winchesters manage to kill the vampires, but Dean is impaled upon a metal spike by one and dies as a result.
