Translates as "night creature", and can refer to any creature of the night; werewolves, zombies, vampires, demons, etc.
When used for vampires, it usually refers to the more grotesque breed (such as the creature from the original silent film "Nosferatu"), as opposed to the more popularized, handsome breed (such as the vampires from "Interview with the Vampire").
