Also it was not completely fabricated the creators of that silent movie got it from European folklore because quite a few vampires from European folklore also spread disease it was the scapegoat back then... Here is my impression of their thought process then: "Our people are dying of plague? It must be the Strigoi!!!" Note: You may have heard the term Strigoi before as it is a type of vampire used in pop culture but the origins of the term Strigoi go back to Romanian folklore where it was a kind of vampire (Either it was a living witch or a member of the undead of course either way it drank blood to sustain itself.)
