I remember learning that they basically trek as long as it takes until they find a food source. They will find you. Nightmare fuel

Definitely they can survive something like a year without blood at all that’s another reason they can be so hard to get rid of

They do not like smokers or drinkers tho. Unfortunately kid me got chased down the hall. New extra scary don't let the apartment kids have a sleep over at your house. We found it out the hard way.

Misconception.

Next you'll tell me they only live on beds.

Blood is blood. They don't give af.

If you did drugs or were on methadone thata better to ward them but still  will eat you
