In [[Balkan]] folklore, a '''dhampir''' ({{IPA|sq|ðamˈpir}}) is a [[mythical creature]] that is the result of a union between a [[vampire]] and a human. This union was usually between male vampires and female humans, while stories of female vampires mating with male humans are rare.{{Cite book |last=Righi |first=Brian |url=https://archive.org/details/vampiresthrougha0000righ |title=Vampires through the ages: lore & legends of the world's most notorious blood drinkers |date=2012 |publisher=Llewellyn Publications |isbn=978-0-7387-2648-9 |edition=1st |location=Woodbury, Minn |quote=These vampires then, usually male, but in some rare stories female as well, traveled to another village where they were unknown to the inhabitants and married, producing offspring}} |
