Examples

“Of particular interest was the supposed compulsion to kill for blood (to drink). It is thought that such compulsions are linked to a sexual deviation, such as haematophilia or hematolagnia (APA, 2002) or vampirism (Prins, 1985), but Haigh gave no indication of paraphilia of this kind and, indeed, seemed to have no interest in sex.”
