The word 'Vampire' comes from the Slavic word 'Obyri.' The Greek word 'Nosophoros,' which translates into 'plague carrier' evolved into the Slavonic word, 'nosufor-atu.' The words 'vampire' and 'Nosferatu' are interchangeable. In folklore, early versions of the depiction of vampires were associated with complications in childbirth.
