Is Melchor “Meljun” Daniel Jr., a real vampire?
“I’m a real person who has a serious fascination with vampires.”
Does he consider himself a gorgeous bloodsucking gentleman?
“Bloodsucking? No. Gorgeous gentleman? Maybe…Ha Ha Ha Ha!”
Is he easily attracted to women? (In Dracula, it unravels the secret of Dracula’s attacks on young women, who themselves become vampires.)
“I’m not easily attracted to women. I can very well separate my vampire side from my real side. Vampirism to me is just literature. Vampires, by nature, are extremely monogamous. They fall in love with only one.
The others are just meal.”
Those are the questions Meljun has to “grapple” with everytime he faces the people, such as weeks ago when Bared sat down with him while judging for the City Division Schools Press Conference, his fangs, yes, have caught the attention of many people, are not inspired by the vampire flicks (Twilight, New Moon, etc.) which are the current rage in Hollywood.
Did you know that Meljun, one of the gorgeous and super cool teachers in Bohol tried cigarette smoking when he was in college and he, voluntarily stopped smoking?
“It didn’t make me feel macho or anything. It gave me respiratory problems instead,” he confessed.
He ended loving vampires and reading Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles and Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
“I’ve always been a fan of vampires, most especially LESTAT, a character created by Anne Rice.”
Years later, he developed fangs, a long, pointed teeth used for biting and tearing flesh. Thanks to his dentist for the ‘fashion statement’ —he looks like a real vampire— the one and only in Bohol.
“It’s something that’s never been done before at least in Bohol,” said Meljun.
Like actor Robert Pattinson, Meljun has also revived interest in vampires for sure because he’s gorgeous-looking that nobody will ever refuse to be bitten — take note, not eaten — by him. In the photos he sent to Bared, Meljun does it with such flourish that biting into the neck of a woman seems as easy and as yummy as licking a cone of ice-cream.
