[quote:dysfunctional mystic:MV8xMDQ3NDU0XzE2NjA2NDA0XzU3NzlGNkE5] interesting post I agree with the vampire thing and have written about it, the zombie theory is okay too but not so sure I agree with the werewolf one to find the archetype you need to look more closely, werewolves are traditionally restricted to the full moon which is essentially feminine in nature, the full moon is also symbolic of madness, the wolf is a pack animal and the females very protective, for me the werewolf is more symbolic of the savage inner female banshee, the part of us that is primal and anti social,she protects her own and nothing else. thanks for bringing this up, I need to think further on the werewolf one..there's something in it.

My analysis of the 3 as human behavior archetypes:
(Feel free to add your own take)
Vampires - exists off the life force(energy,attention) of others. Act inhuman towards others. Once you are "used" by people like this, you often act the same way.
(Funny sidenote)I have known people like this who hate the smell of garlic. Like really really hate it.
Zombies - dumb people who exist of others ideas (eat brains). They seem almost inhuman in this regard. They dont strive just mindlessly walk around in search of others "brains" (ideas). Why don't zombies eat their own brains? You never see just 1 zombie. It's always masses of zombies, dragging their feet all beat and disgusting looking. To me zombies are an analogy for the sheeple.
Werewolves - when something sets them off they become intoxicated with anger. Uncontrollable. Often regret what they do when they are no longer angry. Could represent just the beast in man in general.
