I guess because they really need blood to stay alive and their immortality becomes a lonely existence they quit having any attachments to humans and view them as nothing but prey.
But I feel like each vampire is different. For example I heard that the vampire countess Carmilla in the novel of the same name grew attached to the main female character Laura who was a mortal human. She actually befriended her but was still killing and feeding off the blood of her victims.
I really want to read Carmilla someday. It's a classic vampire novel just like Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Yeah, there's different kinds of vampires. Usually the recently undead, usually a woman victim, comes back as a bloodthirsty zombie, only slightly able to try to trick a victim. The Dracula is usually given more brains and cunning for some reason, really making them two different creatures.
