I cannot believe these people are actually vampires. I have a few reasons:
a) They mention drinking blood. Most folklore about vampires (and folklore is all I believe to be real "evidence" as anything after that is purely fictional work, but note the quotations) is not preoccupied with drinking blood. Most vampire folklore describes them as being undead beings responsible for causing disease (particularily, tuberculosis) among families or communities.
b) According to folklore, vampires appear to be plump or bloated with dark, almost purplish skin and, those who do drink blood, often had blood dripping from their noses or mouths. Now, if you think about it, you'd be able to notice someone like that.
c) Most folklore was dismissed as lack of knowledge. Bodies that were pressumed to be vampires were often bloated or plump, with blood dripping from the nose or mouth and were thought to be making noises. These are all common traits of a decomposing body due to escaping gasses.
d) They call themselves vampires. The term vampire was not used until the 1700s, and this was when writers began creating fictional works. Of course there were different myths revolving around spirits and demons who drank blood, but there were all subtle differences between different myths. Some where body inhabiting ghoulish spirits and others took the form of fireflys and hunted children. They all had their own names and own distinctions. So, if there were vampires, they wouldn't call themselves vampires, as vampires were the name given to fictional beings in the 1700s.
Well, I can't say it's a cult exactly, but I really don't believe they are real vampires either.
