(NewsNation) — A couple who identify as a vampire and a fairy told NewsNation that “blood drinking is a boring topic” and they’ve “never heard of someone beheading someone.”

Maven Lore, who identifies as a vampire, and Pixie Cat, who identifies as a fairy, are both members of the “vampire court” of New Orleans. They’re not alone.

A 2015 survey found that there are at least 5,000 people in the United States who identify as vampires.

Considering yourself a vampire in America can mean a lot of different things, according to Lore.

“You have different types of feeders, different types of beliefs,” Lore said Monday on “Banfield.” “You have psychic feeders, sexual feeders. You also have people who, like myself, are into the philosophy of being a vampire. There’s people who use it as part of their religious practice. Others who are role players.”

A soon-to-be-released Netflix documentary titled “Vampires in Gem City” alleges Dayton, Ohio, is home to “the largest coven of vampires outside of New Orleans,” according to “What’s on Netflix.”

Lore’s reaction to the upcoming documentary is “Here we go again.”

“I feel like, a lot of the times, when these things happen, the spooky crowd gets the rap for it,” Lore said.” “In my personal opinion, I think these people are closet psychos, and they attach themselves to something.”
