vampirish
Like a nightstalker
Vampirish describes qualities or behavior reminiscent of vampires—pale complexion, nocturnal habits, a predatory or draining nature.
Someone with vampirish tendencies might avoid sunlight or seem to sap energy from those around them: She had a vampirish pallor and kept the curtains drawn all day.
The word is less common than vampiric but carries the same associations.
