Vampires

Vampires
Vampires are Night Things that drink the blood of others to satisfy a desire for blood or 'the life' of another. These beings transform over generations into something called a ripper. According to the Hunters, all vampires eventually turn to Rippers if they survive long enough. The vampire's inability to be photographed is the reason why the Nightschool has never had a yearbook. Sarah Treveny intended to remedy this by substituting drawn portraits for pictures.

Rippers
Rippers are the aftermath of Vampires. They are nothing but ash and blood; they can no longer sleep, speak, or do anything else besides taste souls. Because of this, they often attempt to capture humans.

Known Vampires
Vampires don't play a large part in Nightschool but they are noted. There are few known vampires such as Nicolas, Mr. Kristephor, and the girl who was left to turn in the graveyard.
