According to Esquire, women aren't attracted to vampires in movies and on television because they're hot -- we're attracted to them because we all secretly want to have sex with gay dudes. Sorry, Robert Pattinson, turns out you just remind us of a sparkly, prancing dandy. And vampire Eric, apparently we think you would make a great addition to our next sleepover.But if we're only into vampires because we want to bone dudes playing for the other team, what about other monsters? What does it mean to be attracted to them?
Werewolves
If the idea of a werewolf gets your motor running, you're probably into lumberjacks. Flannel shirt? Check? Filthy Jeans? Check. A propensity for going out and getting crazy when the moon is full? Check. Or you might just be really into Mediterranean dudes, with the body hair and whatnot.
Zombies
Really? Way to play it safe. Your ideal man works at an office in a cubicle. His idea of a good time is to loosen his tie and meander around aimlessly. He has a comfort zone and hates to leave it. For example, he wants the same thing for dinner every night.
Keep reading for more monster matches made in heaven.
Mummies
Congratulations! You, ma'am, are a gold digger.
The Predator
With that mask and that hair, you know what else looks just like the Predator? Football players with dreadlocks.
Frankenstein's Monster
Frankenstein is the strong silent type. Very strong. With moderate brain damage. Kind of like a boxer.
Swamp Thing
Swamp thing reminds us of just about every gutter punk/hippie dude we've ever known -- he smells bad, looks disgusting and is really into the environment.
King Kong
OK, clearly you have seen "Mighty Joe Young" one too many times.
Freddy Krueger
You're just looking for a homebody. He loves little kids and will paint your fingernails for fun. He's also probably very into literature, especially Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde, because he just loves speaking in rhyme, or at least making cheesy puns.

In Victorian literature the vampire was a symbol of sexual attraction and fulfillment.The gradual abandonment of masculine-dominant figures in popular literature has resulted in the vampire gradually representing an obsolescent typology.Plot lines in films ignore traditional Euro/British folklore and allow far too much imaginative freedom to unschooled screenwriters who are responsible for altering the entire image of the vampire with invention incongruent with traditional stereotypes.

Frankenstein wasn't intended to be some bumbling idiot. Mary Shelly's original was articulate and intelligent, but ignorant of human ways. And the vampire as Bram Stroker saw it was a symbol for sexual liberation.
This may be the literature buff in me, but today's protrayls of classic monsters as slow (Frankenstein) or effiminate (vampires) is a far cry from their fear-inducing predecessors.

I will admit that I am not too crazy about vampire movies or other monster movies, (BUT) I dearly love the thought of a vampire. They seem kinda dark and a little scary but in a very sexy way. Most of the gay men that I know are loud, very out spoken and more girlie than I am. That among other reasons, I would NEVER dream of sex with a gay man. I'll take a vampire in a New York second...

Plain and simple: Vampire's and other monsters made by man's fears and superstition are not real.

I'm attracted to vampires because I like supernatural things. I was 11 and had a crush on Harry Potter. When I see a gay guy I don't wanna hook up with him I wanna hook him up with my other gay friends( that's assuming he's cute and nice and not a douche)

Women are attracted to vampires( oh baby) , werewolves(oh yeah) and other supernatural beings ... which some of us do believe exist... theres this thing called faith which is believing in something you cant see... anyways, we're attracted because is something out of the norm and they exude masulinity. They are the buff, hurt in the past, just want someone to love, will worship you if you love them kind of guys. They protect their women and sometimes have kinky sexual practices. Being in each others minds and feeling each others emotions really helps you feel closer to each other.. at least you can tell what they're feeling instead of trying to guess with a regular man.. and decipher if hes lying or not.

I agrree with a_new_renee.
I think its because they are seen as masculine, strong, mysterious, all characteristics that are considered sexy, or attractive. Not because they are gay or lumberjacks, or whatever the heck else.
Also, in recent movies and TV shows, the actors and actresses cast for these roles are young, good looking people, who would be found attractive whether or not they were portrayed as supernatural.
I knew someone who believed he was a vampire, and drank cow blood, and he happened to be bisexual.
I myself do not believe that vampires and werewolves exist, but everyone is entitled to their beliefs and opinions, or maybe they just know something the majority of us don't. You never know, so don't hate.
