Jack Townson is a Real Life Vampire and the Internet Can’t Handle It
New Yorker Jack Townson is going viral for claiming he is a real life vampire. In an interview with The Daily Star, Townson says, “I awakened between the ages of seven to 10 and others can awaken much later in life. I started to exhibit certain feelings of hunger that didn’t make sense, almost this gnawing sensation, this intense need I couldn’t place as well as this very deep intensity that would take me and I didn’t understand it at all. I came a little bit more sensitive to the sun because that is a thing, vampires don’t burst into flames, that’s not how it works, but we do have a certain sensitivity. I do feed but not in the way that you think, feeding doesn’t always mean on blood, there are energetic ways of doing these things.”
The 35 year old’s claims have drawn a lot of attention online, with many people calling him out for being a fraud. However, there are also some people who believe him and are fascinated by his story. Whether or not Townson is actually a vampire is still up for debate, but one thing’s for sure—the internet can’t get enough of him.
Here are some of the best reactions to Jack Townson’s viral interview:
“I’m so sorry but this is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.”
“Who let the vampires out?”
“This is why we can’t have nice things.”
“I’m not sure if I believe him but I’m also not sure if I don’t believe him?”
