History Main / IHateYouVampireDad

* The protagonist of ''Literature/TheSanguineChronicles'' has a hate-on for ALL vampires and werewolves--- his mother died due to a vampire/werewolf attack, and he was consequently infected with both curses while still in the womb. He especially hates vampire and werewolf pop culture, and has an idle hobby of ritually mutilating [[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Edward Cullen]] dolls.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Kaspall}}'' Caroline has no ill will towards the werewolves who bit her, after all they were berserk and are actually her biological parents, she visits them at the psych ward every week. However, towards [[spoiler: Katherine Ulfor]], the one who bit them, and whom she tauntingly refers to as "grandmother" [[spoiler: while chasing her through the Skein in dire wolf form]], she has nought but pure, unadulterated loathing.

* Inverted in ''Film/WhatWeDoInTheShadows'', where Deacon describes the horrific event of him first turning into a vampire at the hands of a winged monster, then casually remarking that it was his flatmate Petyr and that they're "still friends today." When Petyr does the same to Nick later, he shows no animosity towards him and is later shown gossiping with him about the other vampires.

*** There was also a straight version. In "[[Recap/AngelS05E13WhyWeFight Why We Fight]]", Angel once sired a vampire ''after'' being cursed with a soul; this had devastating consequences for the "child", who eventually came looking for revenge. (During World War 2, [[ItMakesSenseInContext Angel had to turn a fatally wounded engineer named Sam Lawson to ensure the U-boat he was on made it to the States]].) The newly-turned vampire could gain no pleasure from feeding, perhaps as a result of Angel's curse plus his own former idealistic nature, and so resented him even more. Angel even calls him "son" at one point.

** [=LaCroix=] has his own fatal relationship with ''his'' sire, who, just to keep things interesting, was his [[EnfantTerrible pre-teen daughter]]. Made worse by the fact that she apparently turned him because of an [[OedipusComplex Electra Complex]], which naturally [[EvenEvilHasStandards freaked him out]].

* ''Anime/TsukuyomiMoonPhase'': Read the arc Elfride's Past. She may have been sad when Kinkle lost, but when he lived, she had a lot of good reasons for hating him. It takes three chapters of manga to explain her backstory before the main characters met her, and it's almost all just Kinkle being a complete monster.

* The protagonist of ''Literature/TheSanguineChronicles'' has a hate-on for ALL vampires and werewolves--- his mother died due to a vampire/werewolf attack, and he was consequently infected with both curses while still in the womb. He especially hates vampire and werewolf pop culture, and has an idle hobby of ritually mutilating [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Edward Cullen]] dolls.

* Averted in the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' series. Edward, Esme, Rosalie, and Emmett were all at the brink of death when Carlisle turned them, and thus had no chance to consent. Many of the Cullens, but Edward and Rosalie most of all, express unhappiness with their lives as vampires, and wish they could have lived out human lives instead. Despite that, none of them ever blame or show anger toward Carlisle for turning them, and are shown to have close bonds with him. (The third book reveals that Rosalie's anger was reserved for the attackers who ''did'' rob her of a full human life by leaving her mortally injured in the first place.)

So they offer the loved one the choice, and wonder of wonders, [[TheyDo they accept!]] However, the vampire sire and the loved one have a falling out. Why? Well, a lot of potential reasons exist. Maybe the change made the loved one into someone, or some ''thing'' that the sire no longer recognizes or loves. Maybe the loved one [[StagesOfMonsterGrief can't handle the stress of being a vampire]], or once fully immersed in the life realizes their sire lied about not being BlessedWithSuck, and if the loved one is a biological child of theirs, they'll [[NotGrowingUpSucks never grow up.]] Point is, they can't love each other like they did when the loved one was alive.

* Perhaps the most well-known example of this - or one of the most popular anyway - is Alucard from the ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' series. He does feel remorse after his dad's demise, though (that's hardly a spoiler; in every 'Vania game Dracula carks it and [[LoadBearingBoss takes his palace with him]]). Alucard [[spoiler: in his (to the savvy audience) PaperThinDisguise as Genya Arikado]] has a much more cordial relationship with [[spoiler: Soma Cruz, Dracula's reincarnation from ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaAriaOfSorrow'' and ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaDawnOfSorrow'']], acting as a staunch (if somewhat aloof) ally.

* In ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'', Sorin Markov resents his grandfather Edgar for turning him into a vampire using a ritual so painful and traumatic that it ignited Sorin's planeswalker spark. The dislike is mutual: Sorin is despised by the Innistrad vampires for creating the angel Avacyn to guard humankind (even though he did it so that the vampires wouldn't recklessly exhaust their food source), and is still banned from the Markov manor. More literally, Avacyn hates her vampire dad, despite not being a vampire herself.

** Serana and her father Harkon from ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]''[='s=] ''Dawnguard'' DLC Play With this trope. While Serana ''does'' [[ArchnemesisDad oppose her father]], she admits to the [[PlayerCharacter Dragonborn]] that she ''likes'' being a vampire; her issues with her father come from the fact that he became so obsessed with gaining more power that she and her mother became nothing more than pawns and/or distractions to him, and she assists the Dragonborn because she knows that if Harkon gets [[TheNightThatNeverEnds what he wants]], she'll have [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlived her usefulness]].

* Pietro aka Pete from ''Anime/GhostSweeperMikami'' is actually half-vampire, half-human. And yes, he ''hates'' his father Count Vlado.

** Acknowledged and forbidden outright in The Book of Nod, ''Masquerade's'' vampire Bible. Caine (father of all vampires) at least twice expressly forbids his Childer from Embracing mortals they fall in love with, because it never ends well (Embrace not love, for love in my Embrace withers and dies.) Of course, his Childer pay about as much attention to that proscription as they do any of his others...

* Perhaps the most well-known example of this - or one of the most popular anyway - is Alucard from the ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' series. He does feel remorse after his dad's demise, though (that's hardly a spoiler; in every 'Vania game Dracula carks it and [[LoadBearingBoss takes his palace with him]]). Alucard [[spoiler: in his (to the savvy audience) PaperThinDisguise as Genya Arikado]] has a much more cordial relationship with [[spoiler: Soma Cruz, Dracula's reincarnation from ''[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaChroniclesOfSorrow Sorrow]]'' games]], acting as a staunch (if somewhat aloof) ally.

* Not necessarily ''vampires'', but a similar thing happens among Prometheans in ''TabletopGame/PrometheanTheCreated''. As part of completing their {{Pi|nocchioSyndrome}}lgrimage, each Promethean has to make at least one new Promethean. Said new Prometheans may not take kindly to learning they've been brought into a life of pain, suffering, and loneliness just so their creator can get ''out'' of said life.

* In ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', Ed isn't exactly fond of Hohenheim at first, thanks to his walking out on Ed and Al's mother. [[spoiler:[[MayflyDecemberRomance He had his reasons]], though, and [[CharacterDevelopment they mostly put their differences behind them]].]] In [[Anime/FullmetalAlchemist the 2003 anime version]], Envy turns out to be [[spoiler:built out of Hohenheim and Dante's dead]] son, and hates [[spoiler:Hohenheim]] so much for abandoning him that he's dedicated his existence to killing him.

* In ''Literature/{{V Wars}}'', Danika Dubov becomes a vampire thanks to being exposed to the I1V1 virus ("ice flu"), which activates dormant [[LegoGenetics "junk" DNA]] in her body, turning her into a vourdalak, a Russian version of a vampire. Unlike the other types of vampire, vourdalaks can only feed on their loved ones. Before Danika even knows she's a vampire, she just feels like she's constantly sick and is having terrible pains in her stomach and jaws, not able to keep any food down. She goes to her sister Mila to try some of their Russian grandmother's soup and ends up attacking and draining her. Later, she realizes that Mila is not dead but turned. Mila ends up hating her sister for being weak and making her into a monster, herself doing her best to avoid biting her boyfriend. [[spoiler:At the end of this StoryArc, Mila goes [[VampireHunter Van Helsing]] on her sister's "progeny" and, eventually, kills her sister and everyone in her "blood farm" (including the "cattle", just in case they turn). Her stated goal is to use the gun on herself after every other vourdalak is dead]].

* [[BigBad Santos]] does ''not'' appreciate the fact that Donte [[EmergencyTransformation turned him into a vampire]] in Z.A. Maxfield's ''Literature/{{Hours}}'' series.

Flash forward several centuries later, and this former love is now the sire's deadliest enemy. [[WhatTheHellHero They blame their sire for their angst]], (usually only teen-vamps will yell "[[TitleDrop I Hate You, Vampire Dad!]]") seeing it as [[TheFarmerAndTheViper base betrayal]], even if they were the ones who suggested the transformation in the first place, and will [[DisproportionateRetribution stop at nothing to make them pay.]] The sire will ([[ManipulativeBastard usually]]) [[WhatHaveIDone feel the full guilt of this]], especially if the sire forced the change on them against their will. This is made worse when their vampirism has NoOntologicalInertia, so if the former loved one kills their sire, they can be mortal again.

* Strangely averted in the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' series. Every single vampire except Bella was turned without their consent (on the FridgeLogic basis that consent isn't needed to turn a dying person into a vampire), and the Cullens spend much time whining and wangsting about how they're not human anymore - Rosalie makes it quite clear she'd rather have died. Yet despite that all of them just WORSHIP the guy who turned them into vampires rather than having justifiable resentment towards him for robbing them of their free will, humanity and mortality.

* LightNovel/VampireHunterD does not have the best memories of his father. That the rest of the Nobility ''worship'' him makes for some unpleasant moments.

** Selene in ''Film/Underworld2003'' after she discovers that it was Victor, not the lycans, who killed her family. Pretty literal as well; the reason he sired her in the first place was because [[ReplacementGoldfish she reminded him of his daughter Sonja]], whom he had previously killed for falling in love with a Lycan.

** Vlad and Ingrid get a dose of this trope. Vlad doesn't want to become a vampire as the family tradition dictates, and Ingrid is often ignored in favor of Vlad. [[ParentalAbuse The Count really doesn't care much for the wishes of his children.]]

** Gonzo's original anime changed Alucard and Seras's relationship, by [[RelationshipWritingFumble adding much more affection between them]], which severely lacks in ''Hellsing Ultimate''. In the anime they are quite touchy-feely and their connection seems fuller of feeling even than Alucard and Integra's bond, which is the relationship that is supposed to come off as slightly romantic. It doesn't help the fact that Seras observes how worried Alucard is for Integra ([[spoiler: when she almost gets killed]]), then sees how close they are and she suddenly becomes surprised and sad, even though her motives are ambiguous, making the viewer think that she is jealous.

* In ''Literature/FredTheVampireAccountant'', Fred doesn't really know who his sire is, as the other vampire was gone by the time Fred regained consciousness. Later on, though, his sire comes back and cites his disappointment with Fred. Apparently, he hasn't turned Fred at random and was hoping that Fred's mild-mannered personality was a mask for repressed rage at society. He was wrong. Fred really is that mild-mannered and non-violent, and becoming a vampire hasn't changed that. The only reason he left is because he was called away on urgent business after turning Fred. He was hoping that Fred would have turned the city into a bloodbath by the time he returned.* DoubleSubversion in ''Literature/HarryPotter:'' Remus Lupin admits that when he was younger, he felt sorry for the unknown werewolf who turned him, assuming that they were another poor soul struggling against their curse. Turns out, no--the culprit, Fenrir Greyback, is a FullyEmbracedFiend who specifically targeted Remus ([[WouldHurtAChild then age four]]) in a case of RevengeByProxy against Remus' dad.

* Ash in ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines'' was being groomed as an actor by Isaac, a vampire; when Isaac found Ash dying of an overdose, he turned him. Unfortunately, this means that Ash can't act any more, leaving him unfulfilled and horribly bitter. It's extra heartstring-tugging because Isaac is a kind if stern man who dotes on Ash and refuses to give up on his well being, even giving him his own nightclub.

*** Isaac also does nothing when Ash is being stalked by the Society of Leopold, and blows it off if you ask about it, saying he has faith in his Childe. Ash is considering committing suicide by attacking the hunters and has no way to escape on his own...

* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'': Evangeline was turned into a vampire in her tenth birthday and first regained consciousness surrounded by dead bodies with their blood on her hands and her lips. What happened affected her so much that she killed the one responsible for her vampirization.
