Position:Home>Books & Authors> In the book twilight, what happens to you if you get bitten by a vampire?

In the "Twilight" world, one who is bitten by a vampire changes into a vampire due to the venom that leaks into their bloodstream and causes them to change (over about a three-day period, which is very painful) UNLESS the vampire biting the human decides to kill them!. It takes a lot of strength for a vampire to resist the urge to take all the blood they can from a human, so becoming a vampire isn't very likely unless you're dealing with a very mentally powerful vampire!. There are a bunch of different types of vampires depending on their "diet!."

This is inadvertently explained in the books, but I'll edit with some sites where you can check out the details of this from Stephenie Meyer herself!.

From the Twilight Lexicon: http://www!.twilightlexiconblog!.com/!?page!.!.!.

Q!. When vampires feed off of humans, do they drink out all the blood!? And if they do what do they do with the bodies, do they just let bloodless bodies lie around or dispose of them!?

A: They drain the bodies, and then hide them (it’s not good to draw attention to oneself)!. For example, if Laurent was taking a stroll through the woods and happened on a tasty hiker, after drinking all the available blood (and it’s almost impossible to stop, once you get started–that’s why so few vampires are successfully created), he might rip a large spruce out of the ground, throw the body under it, and then replant it!. It would only take a few seconds and very little effort!. There are lots of ways to dispose of a body when you have superhuman strength!.

Q: If someone’s bitten with loads of venom right by the heart, how quick is the conversion and is it more painful than a regular conversion!? Were some of the Cullen’s transformations worse than others!?

A: About the conversion process… If there is a lot of venom in the human’s system, the pain is more intense to begin with!. Like fire, the venom burns through the body!. So, with fire in more places, there is more pain at the outset!. When Bella was bitten by James, the fire was only in her hand!. Painful enough, but not as bad as if she had several bites!. Of course, this is only at the outset!. If James’ venom had been allowed to spread through Bella, it would have over time made its way through her whole system, and the pain eventually would have been just as intense as if she’d been deliberately infected with multiple, well-placed bites (jugular, wrists, ankles, etc!.)!. So, all that early pain as the venom wound through her system is extra–an added portion of pain that doesn’t in anyway cut down the time or the intensity of the greater pain!. The greatest pain begins when the venom is all the way through the body, through the heart, and it starts meeting itself in the veins again and then burning them dry!. It moves slower than blood because it’s thicker!. Each beat of the heart can only push it so far!. The changing/burning process is slow!. The venom has to leak through to every cell before it ends!. It took Carlisle a little more than three days because his bites were not deliberate or well-placed!. It can be as short as two!.

Thirsty vampires are in acute physical pain!. It is comparable to the feel of a third degree burn inside your throat!. It can make a vampire literally crazy for relief—beyond thought!. If your hand was on fire and there was a bucket of ice water beside you, would you resist that relief!? Of course not!. You would have no reason to!. Back to the average vampire’s viewpoint, neither does a vampire have a reason to resist!. There is a fire, he or she quenches it!. Problem, solution!. It is not about pleasure as much as relief of pain for the thirsty vampire!. There is pleasure in the act, but it does not influence the motivation before the act as much as the pain does!.
