The old english way of spelling "Vampire." It's also the title of the first vampire story written in the english language; which was published in 1819. Seventy-nine years before the publication of Bram Stoker's vampire novel "Dracula."
During the year without summer (1816) in which Mary & Percy Shelly, Clair Clairmont, Lord Byron, and John Polidori were gathered at the Villa Diodati, Switzerland; Lord Byron suggested, on one night, that each should write a horror story.
During that night, Polidori began writing a short tale which would become the first vampire story ever written in the english language, titled: "The Vampyre."
It should also be noted that during that same night, Mary Shelley started working on a story which would later evolve into the famous novel "Frankenstein."
Polidori's story "The Vampyre" is a short story which was, at first, was falsely credited to Lord Byron. Nevertheless, it was later confirmed by Byron that the author was in fact John William Polidori (Lord Byron's physician).

Thought by many (Morons) to be a 'cooler' way of spelling Vampire, this is not the case a 'Vampyre' is actually a mortal Vampire.
She was a Vampyre, a mortal Vampire.

Refers to Vampire aesthetics, as in the subculture. Typically vampire refers to the vampires of history. Vampyre is the term used for modern day people who participate in vampire role-play or dress etc.
Dracula is a vampire, the chic with the fangs wearing all black at the coffee shop is a vampyre.

n. vampyre. There are three types of nahualistic vampyres: energy, resource, and soul. These vampyres do not drink blood except in a metaphoric yet real way.
Example 1: The world is filled with soul vampyres, son - if you want to keep a job you better become one too or they will drutch you dry.
Example 2: My wife only wanted me for my net worth and a baby. She got them. She's gone...vampyre.
Example 3: Whenever I'm around him, I feel so drained, like he's a vampyre.

Simply an archaic word with the same meaning as the modern spelling of vampire.
Moron: I think i'm 1337 so i'll type Vampyre rather than Vampire.

A Vampire lifestyler, a regular person taking their love of vampires too far. They portray contemporary myths.
When my ex-boyfriend asked me if he could bite me, I wasn't aware he was a vampyre.
