The article does not cite its sources. The part where it mentions these creatures emerging from graves does not appear in any of the actual folklore which depicts this as a type of fairy not an undead vampire.

I think whether this creature is a vampire could be an exceedingly complex discussion - there is a source now for the statement that these entities reside in graves over day. However, this is also true for fairies of anglo-irish-scottish folklore in general. They are a hidden people, residing in "fairy mounds", which are burial hills. The reason for this is that they are races pre-dating current humans, which withdrew to the underworld. Which would make them undead, in a way. However, I'm not certain they actually ever died in those myths, or if they just "shifted dimensions" via magic. If their residence in the underworld makes them undead, then this "fairy" would at least be very close to the definition of a vampire - an undead which drinks blood. The only difference would perhaps be the way she came into existence - via the magic or nature of her race, rather than the "unfortunate circumstances" that lead to humans becoming vampires in vampire myths. Removing her from the vampire category for now. --Ciaraleone (talk) 20:05, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
