Immortality is actually a kind of torture, if it is human

For some reason, last semester I fell in love with a vampire TV series, not the vampire diaries. . . More than the vampire diaries, I told some people that I watched this show, they actually said that I was abnormal. . . The TV series are obviously very good, really. . . I found that I am a little in love with vampire-themed film and television works. Yesterday, under the instigation of curiosity, but also someone mentioned it in the post bar. I looked at "The Vampire Diaries" and found out. . . I did not understand. . . I don't know what the ending means. . . I remember when I was in high school, the Chinese teacher told us about Gothic culture, and when he talked about the film and television works of Gothic culture, he mentioned the night interview with vampires. Seeing a group of men with long hair fluttering, feel. . . It's amazing, and it's so beautiful. . . And Tom and Peter are both handsome. . Can't be nympho anymore. . . Although I don't watch many movies and TV series about vampires, I can probably feel the similarities between them. Vampires feed on human or animal blood, and most of them are alternative creatures without body temperature and emotions. Haunted in the dark night, there have always been legends of one kind or another. Western culture always portrays them as cold, cruel, bloody, and violent. Perhaps it is precisely this that makes people fear them and at the same time they are full of infinite curiosity. In fact, according to the description in the traditional sense, vampires should be walking dead without emotions. However, film and television works always like to use a human vampire to make a fuss. Also, if he has no humanity, how can he observe the things he has seen since his eternal life, and how can he resonate with the audience's feelings. I think people use the permanent eyes of vampires to see the ups and downs of mankind. I always feel that there will always be two camps of vampires in film and television dramas, one is that they enjoy this identity, and the other is that human nature cannot tolerate this identity. And always, the former is stronger and more unrestrained than the latter. However, it is the latter that allows us to see the pain of eternal life. But also, if there is still humanity, immortality is endless torture. I still remember the fourth episode of True Love, which described the revenge action of a witch against a vampire. Finally, when Anthony persuaded Mani to give up his revenge, he said, don't envy them. They have endless lives and suffer endless pain. For them, eternal life is punishment.
