You can write whatever you want :-)

I found this interesting sentence in Journal of Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Theraphy

"The legend of vampires is likely based on the porphyria affected individuals important avoidance of sunlight to prevent severe and progressive skin and tissue damage"

I guess most of you must have thought I read some kind of arts or history journal..No..no..no...This article was written by an author from school of medicine in a journal about photosensitiser (something to do with fluorescence agent for medical application)..well, I guess researchers must have some fun when writing scientific article...hahahaha..

To further understand the relation between the article I read and vampire, I found this article on: PORPHYRIA and the VAMPIRE LEGEND.
