Cases of ‘real’ vampires (Highgate, Kirklees etc)?

Hi there. Been doing a bit of reading on cases of so called 'real' vampires (such as those witnessed in Highgate, Kirklees etc). Recorded sightings seem to be pretty scant, however. Does anybody know of any documented cases of 'real' vampires circa 1700s +?
(I would like to stress, when I say real vampires, I'm talking about actual animated corpses…not human beings that drink blood.)
Thanks!

None, just stories.
There were a few cases of "animated corpses" that turned out to have been people who were presumed dead, but had actually been in comas or some sort of other near-death illness, and then woken up later.
Those instances also led to a rash of devices and methods to ensure that one was not entombed or buried while still actually alive, including alarms inside crypts and in coffins to alert someone if the "dead" person moved.
Recorded sightings of vampires are scarce, you say? Who would have thought it! After all, unicorns, mermaids and pixies are seen every day, so you'd think that other mythical beings such as vampires would be bumped into all the time.
Seán Manchester and David Farrant are a couple of fruitcakes whose only talents are self-promotion and self-delusion. Anyone who believes anything they and their followers write deserves all the misery their credulity will bring them.
If you mean eighteenth Century there was one at the turn of the nineteenth century in Exeter Rhode Island.
