Dracula, Edward Cullen, Count Chocula… they’re all vampires who have one thing in common: they hate garlic! Or, DO they? You see, Loyal Theorist, it’s a lie we’ve been told all of these years. They don’t actually hate garlic! But, where does this all originate? It’s certainly not Transylvania! So let’s suck some blood out of this theory…

Fun fact: Since here, in Romania, Halloween isn't a traditional holiday, garlic is used during Christmas and New years Eve to ward off evil spirits by hanging garlands of it around the windows
I'm kinda sad that we don't celebrate Halloween in Romania. Well, I still celebrated it in some way, but still. It would be fun to trick or treat lol.
We may not go house to house for candy in autumn, but at least we get to go house to house for nuts, pretzels and money in winter in more rural areas lol
He hang it just so it doesn’t spoil during winter
I'm in the team Halloween though. I'd like a day in the year to celebrate our fears of the unknown. Vampires, witches, ghosts and mythical creatures were so important to our cultures and they faded away in the last 200 years. They never existed but shaped our society for millenia.
Oh wow
the fact that the subscribe button actually does something and matpat isn't just lying is absolutely amazing. protect this person at all costs.
My subscribe button made da sparkles ✨
I was like 😮😮😮
It didn’t do anything when he said subscribe. It does sparkle or whatever that was supposed to be when you press it though.
It's the same effect for when you like the video :D

Personally I subscribe to the notion that they thought it would be funny to convince their food to season themselves
This is mentioned somewhere, right? 🤔🤔 Where is that from, haha
69th like
That's not even possible.
I thought it was common knowledge that the "garlic" myth was spread by werewolves, during the third "moonlight" war, as their heightened canine sense of smell meant they could sniff out potential vampire victims, as a method of starving out the enemy.
🌝
Is this from a book or show?
@@Gene1nABottle no, just my own brain.
I love one book that claimed it was a different plant that looked kind like garlic and people been doing it wrong the whole time. And the vampires weren't going to go correct them.
which book?

MatPat should do a Food Theory on what the most important meal of the day is.
Lunch is the most important meal of the day!
Dinner, because you can plan that according to your calorie needs.
@@wackywert9081but hey, that's just a theory
The people who know… know
I really doubt it's breakfast. So I would really want to see that.
I personally like the Hotel Transylvania explanation of Vampires just being garlic intolerant
Father-Daughter garlic farts.
Yup
🌝
Same with My Sister The Vampire🧛🏻♀️
So, basically, we're seasoning ourselves for vampires? 😂
I thought it was just that Vampires having hellishly stronger senses made the smell of garlic unbearable to them. Then again; by that logic, the smell of rotting corpses should also deter them. However, rotting corpses don’t cause you to tear up like how Allicin does
Omg same lol😅
Same.
Majority of people are vampires these days, veganism isn't that popular like old days when meat was too expensive and only kings was able to have bloody and brutal diet

i actually like that idea, a group of vampires going around sparing people who have garlic so that it spreads and becomes a popular idea that garlic wards off vampires when in reality it has no effect, i may add this to my dnd campaign
Counter idea.
Vampire scam.
Garlic help them they need you to eat it they sold it to humans bye pretending it was a repellant.
Don't read my name !!..
IC: Great way to get the herd to season itself, eh?
I imagine a vampire being caught eating garlic bread and a person is like “hold up… that’s got garlic so shouldn’t you be dead?” And the vampire straight up plays dead until they leave.
@@Possibly_Olivia yes!!
MatPat saying Slavic word upior (upiór in Polish), was one of the things I've never thought I would consider adorable
Little known fact: the association between garlic bulbs and vampires has possible origins in Ancient Greece and Rome. Since vampires of that time were seen as jellyfish-like creatures and there were no windows or curtains in most buildings, people would hang garlic bulbs on twine to wrap up the tentacles and stop the vampire from entering your home
Wait, but that sounds adorable.
Another interesting tidbit, Garlic flowers were one of the plants sacred to Hecate, Greek goddess of witchcraft and necromancy, along with Aconite, aka Wolfsbane, aka a popular plant to use against werewolves in fiction
Fun fact, in Irish and even Scottish folklore, werewolves actually were more good guys than bad guys
Fun fact about that interesting tidbit : You're saying a Werewolf-specific weakness (garlic) has become a Vampire-specific weakness ... but that's not all ... In fact, a Vampire-specific weakness (silver) has also become a Werewolf-specific weakness. Yes. In Bram Stoker's Dracula novel, Vampires are vulnerable to silver.
Is that why it's called wolfsbane 😳
@@impudentstrumpet2655 no clue actually
@@jackwilliam4436 To add on to this, the reason both werewolves and vampires were weak to silver is because they were considered 'unholy' and evil creatures, meaning they couldn't touch the holy silver.
Thus, some of the more heroic, "good" vampires nowadays could potentially cite this non-weakness as proof of their alignment(depending on canon). Haven't seen it yet, but I don't just casually read vampire stories.
Garlic is quite literally natures antibiotic,
so it really is good for your health.
Unless you're deathly allergic like me
… I wouldn’t use “Nature’s antibiotic” for anything, other than actual penicillin, because y’know, it’s from a fungus.
It’s too strong of language for… garlic.
@@sarab3888 Are you allergic or...are *you* a vampire? DUN DUN DAAAAH
Uh no... PENICILLIN is actually LITERALLY natures antibiotic.

4:08 I once worked at an Archival Office where they had an original copy of that.
8:29 mat can really never stop saying LORE
I made a mistake it's 8:20 or 8:24
FunFact: Vampires dying in Sunlight didn’t come until the Nosferatu movie. Before that Vampires simply weakened or at worst lost their powers temporarily.
You should do a theory on how Welcome mats are essentially an invitation to enter your home. Vampires love them.
Fangs for watching!
7:01 Idk why, but our class did a whole unit on the Salem with trials, and all were hung except for one(male, I believe) was pressed under stones. They did do the river test, but they also did normal court trials as well. :)
Nobody nothing:
(3:40) Matpat: ThE StRÂgHoYy ✨💅 😭😭😭
I like the explanation they gave in the manga/anime Interviews With Monster Girls (Demi-chan Wa Kataritai).
Basically, it's not that garlic repels vampires, it's just that vampires have more sensitive eyes and noses, so the smell is extra potent to them.
But just like how some people like smelly foods, so do some vampires. In fact, the show's main vampire, Hikari, loves garlic specifically because of the strong smell.
In the Bram Stoker novel, the way garlic is used to ward of Dracula is by filling the room with garlic flowers after securely fastening the windows shut. To quote the book, "First he fastened up the windows and latched them securely; next, taking a handful of the flowers, he (Van Helsing) rubbed them all over the sashes, as though to ensure that every whiff of air that might get in would be laden with the garlic smell". The entire point of the garlic was that it would smell bad.
The plan then fails due to Lucy's (the victim's) mother throwing all the flowers out, and opening the window for 'fresh air' because _they were too smelly,_ and she was afraid the smell would be too much for the poor girl... Ironically enough, dooming the very person she thought to save.
As a kid I was so afraid of vampires, I considered sleeping with garlic in my bed. Then I found out about the guy who chocked on garlic he had in his mouth to ward off vampires.
*New fear unlocked*
@@hakunamaradaxD
Really? How would that even happen? Why would anyone put garlic in their own mouth to fend off vampires? Is that actually a tradition or something? That’s not something I’ve ever heard of. Seems kinda random.
@@thenamelesschannel2334they used to put garlic in dead peoples mouths it must have gotten mixed up
2:29 While on the topic of Egyptian vampires, many red haired men were sacrificed to the god Osiris because redheads at the time were assumed to be vampires.
You taught me more than my 6th grade science teacher during my Egypt unit
Depending upon the iteration, it is sometimes just the smell of garlic that repels vampires. Meaning a very well-disciplined vampire would be flat out immune to it.
The answer to why garlic wards off vampires is right there in the first historical example MatPat gave (from Egypt): Vampires are feline, and therefore get poisoned by plants from the lily family!
I think Matpat got confused between Sekhmet and Bastet. Sekhmet just has a lion head while Bastet is the cat goddess.
Do lions get poisoned by lily plants too?
well, I'd assume since they're very similar animals, it'd be very likely... but of course, you can't assume anything around MatPat, lol.
The whole flowers vs cloves thing actually came to a lot of people's attention when Dracula Daily took off really big last year. There were many posts online commenting on how television and film has lied to us.
i literally forgot about dracula daily 😭.
Ooh they redid dracula daily? I remember it was a big deal on the live journal. *Old voice* yes we used to read that too, which is when I put an onion on my belt which was the style at the time..
@antomie yeah they just wrapped up the 3rd year. This year there was also an audio drama called Re: Dracula that was released in that same chronological format, and they released a hard copy that was listed by date and included Dracula Daily commentary and art.
the garlic flower looks an awful lot like vervain (vampire diaries) and would certainly explain a lot
I actually read a story which rejected garlic & silver, saying it was spread misinfo so humans think they're not as vulnerable, making them more vulnerable in turn 🤣
Sounds like matpat is a vampire who doesn't want us to know his weakness

ok, i will better say you i will die from being stabbed with a silver sharpening, and perhaps it would work as 3ple blef
For those who are wondering, the subscribe button does actually have a new animation. It’s nothing too special but it’s very cool! :))
Rainbow sparkles 🌈 ✨
Does it work on mobile because mine doesn’t?
lol i just unsubscribed and subscribed just to check if it glow but sparkles ✨ was much better
@@funforlife9893 I’m on mobile and it worked for me but I’m on an iPhone so I’m not sure

editing was mega good and funny in this vid!! nice job editors :)
1:28 For me the button sparkles with little stars. xD
Oh please MatPat, what’s next? You’re going to tell me that Vampires don’t sparkle or play baseball?
Or that they are immune to holy water and crosses if they are atheists. Unless they are drowned in the holy water or if the cross is used according its original purpose, that is.
Vampires always play Baseball ⚾🧢 lol
I don't think vampires sparkle or play baseball
Some American vampires might play baseball, I highly doubt that they sparkle.
😂😂😂
i remember this one theory i watched a while ago where they basically explained how they saw the world in another view. The reasoning on why the cross worked was because they would basically have a seizure when seeing structures. So, not only the wooden crosses, but it started out with made made structures randomly appearing for them.
I may have forgotten that in that theory, vampires were here before our beautiful gross tall towers were. Honestly, it was a funny video to watch. Definitely enjoyed it
it did a very pretty rainbow outline thing. Love your vids btw
Fun fact, the original story that turned vampyers from monsters to seductores was written at the same party where Mary Shelly wrote Frankenstein.
If I recall correctly, the author's actually met up earlier and basically dared each other to write a horror story. Mary Shelly wrote Frankenstein, and he wrote Dracula.
@@abbadon9693Dracula was not written at that gathering. The Vampyre was written; Dracula wouldn't be written for another 80 years
Actual garlic was also named in Dracula. When Mina is bitten and they travel she is given food heavily loaded with garlic because the townsmen suspected her and she couldn’t eat it because of the garlic
5:45 I’m crying through the screen
Ooo! I did not expect it to actually do something😁
Pleasantly surprised
One of the reasons I love all these theory videos is that they use REAL LIFE science and maths to answer questions. Like, call me a nerd or whatever, but math and science have always been interesting to me, and the theories all ways make use of them in a way that makes me incredibly satisfied and happy. :)

I love how plants develop defense mechanisms so that they can survive, reproduce, and whatever and humans are just like "Dude! This stuff is delicious! Let's cultivate it!" Leaving the plant like "task failed successfully?"

I like Chibi vampires interpretation of this part of the lore more… It’s not that garlic has some kind of supernatural repelling affect, It’s just that vampires sense of smell is so strong that being around the scent of Garlic actually sickens them.
True is also supposed to make it so they can't concentrate on using their mind control and transformation powers due to the smell overwhelming their senses and makes it so they can't detect your smell through the garlic stench.
A WHOLE lot more things than just garlic should bother them, then. Onions are 100x worse, for instance. Never cried chopping garlic.
@@WynneL Only if you cut them and are nearby when they are cut just an onion alone doesn't smell that bad but I guess garlic is the same it doesn't really smell with the skin on does it?
This is the one truthful CZcamsr on the platform
i tried the subscribe thing. it does glow, so thats pretty cool and you gained a sub :D
If you've read the book "I Am Legend", it's basically the story of a scientist trying to figure out why vampires are the way they are, including why they don't like sunlight, garlic, etc. Lots of the points from this video feel like they were taken straight out it. Also, because the book is so sciency, we've never really gotten a faithful adaptation of it (and the ending is brilliant)
The subscribe button actually did something, I thought MatPat was lying 😂
Yea I unsubbed just to check it and it was pretty cool
Nothing too fancy, but it was a nice surprise
Its like a quick flash hahs
This is why we trust matpat, he’s a truther
Nothing happenes
I does every time I watch a NEW channel's video I am not subscribed to when they tell the viewer to subscribe it actually glows
Dude you are my favorite CZcamsr
You should definitely consider doing an episode on the unseen issues of eating ice. I'm sure most ice-chewers have heard its bad for your teeth, but what about the bacteria from the gross water that's probably frozen? Just a thought over a bad experience with McDonalds ice...
...you mean the bacteria in the water that, if the water wasn't frozen, we would be drinking?
Maybe... maybe don't use ice for drinks if you wouldn't drink it as water... even if you're not going to crunch it???
@@Foxflight-pl5nd 😭😭
Still, could be interesting. I have heard that deliberately eating ice is a mild form of "pica", the eating disorder.
@@KelniusTVCan be. Although it's not unusual for people to chew ice without other symptoms of pica.
So I have yet to watch this (just haven't had a chance) but for those curious incase mat doesn't address it. The big thing with garlic was from a belief stand point as vampires were believed to bring plague and disease, they were unclean and brought sickness everywhere. Thus garlic and running water countered them as they were believed to be to be pure and clean which would in turn banish creatures or spirits of sickness.
Also a bit unrelated fun fact the invitation being needed to enter a home which primarily originates from stoker was due to the belief that the devil and his minions could only do business or interact with those who invited them or chose to do so.
You are correct on the glow
Ooh little green glow flash thing. Cool
I just watched Horror of Dracula (starring the late great Christopher Lee) there other night. In it, Dr. Van Helsing (played by Peter Cushing) made use of garlic FLOWERS (not bulbs) to ward vampires out of a house. It felt weird at the time, but MatPat's mention of them here makes it all make sense. Those old Hammer films were more on point with their vampire lore.
Wasn't that the film where it was stated Vampires turning into bats are myth?
(1:26) I tried it, it actually does
The fact the subscribe button actuelly does something is amazing
1:33 OKAY MatPat I unsubscribed from my favorite CZcams channel (Food Theory) JUST TO SEE THE SUBSCRIBE THING AND IT WAS LIGHT GREEN AND I THINK FADE TO LIGHT PURPLE AND THEN SPARKLED!!!! Very cool! I am now subscribed again XD
Reminds me of the rumor that fairies are allergic to iron... Which if true would kinda make living on earth close to impossible

4:52 ok thanks matpat i thought that pic was representative of actual historical events
As a reader of Bram Stoker’s Dracula I literally slammed my hands down in excitement when he finally mentioned the garlic FLOWER

No way MatPat, my friend and me just started building something completely about vampires 😭
And i quote, "OH NO THEY'RE ONTO US"
1:17 Omg it’s true
So imma need a part 2 on this as to explain why the garlic flower is so important rather then the bulb.
Slander Garlic as much as you want, You're not Gonna stop me from putting Garlic on all my foods.
It seems a lot of food “defense mechanisms” are things that humans can just tank.
My man Polidori got a shout-out! Far too many people don't give him the credit he deserves. Fun fact, that story was written in part as a response to the challenge Lord Byron gave to several of his contemporaries at the Villa Diodati in 1816, to compose their own ghost stories. Byron wrote a fragment of a novel, which Polidori finished in this story- which led to people erroneously crediting Byron for the story for quite a long time. Actually, the vampire in the story was clearly based on Byron, which just makes it all the more depressing that poor Polidori went so long in the shadows. Also, Polidori did not win the contest; that honor would go to Mary Godwin, soon to be Mary Shelley, with Frankenstein!

I like the implication that garlic is somehow a random choice of a weakness, despite running water and the need to be invited inside being popular weaknesses as well.
"Ah yes, running water is a perfectly normal thing to say a vampire is weak to. And of course all vampires need to be invited inside. But garlic? That's sooo random!"
I thought it had to be holy water?
@@richardgurney1844 While that's ALSO a common weakness, old school vampires are also not supposed to be able to cross running water. Usually less of hurting them thing, and more a simple barrier though.
Were those concepts even mentioned in passing in the video? I don't remember them coming up, so unless that's my ADHD at work, no implications were made. You can't remark on whether something is normal or abnormal if you don't say anything about it.
@@FormerlyEpesi Counterpoint: The topic is about vampires and therefore anything related to vampires is fair game.
Similarly, I said "implication", meaning that, while they outright didn't talk about those weaknesses, the idea that garlic is somehow random when it comes to horror weaknesses is humourous when considering other weaknesses associated with vampires.
Water and garlic may actually be weaknesses of vampires (at least to a certain extent), as it’s believed that the myth of vampires may be closely associated with rabies. There was a major outbreak of rabies in Hungary in the early 18th century, only a few years before the myth of “modern” vampires became extremely popular. Several of the symptoms of vampirism also match the symptoms of rabies, such as light sensitivity, hydrophobia, increased aggression, biting, and sensitivity to strong odors, like garlic. I have no idea where the part about vampires needing to be invited in comes from, but my best theory is that it could possibly be related to the folklore of the vampire spirits, rather than what we would consider vampires nowadays.
Now I can't help but wonder about another aspect of vampire lore: the whole bit that if you throw salt over your shoulder as you run away, they'll be compelled to stop and count the grains. I'm sure it's related to the whole idea that if you spill salt, you need to throw a pinch of it over your shoulder for good luck, but looking into all that could be fun.
I've never heard salt be used, but rice and wheat were absolutely a part of that myth. The Count from Sesame street was actually accurate.
Salt is supposed to be a magical and pure substance that is used in magical or religious rituals and in potions or to drawing magical/holy symbols on the floor to ward off evils like ghosts, demons and the undead and some believe a simple circle of salt provides a safe space in the centre so they would draw a circle around their home in salt.

0:54 You know what's creepy? Yesterday, I watched a video, and it wasn't talking about subscribing at that time, but when I went to make a comment, my whole screen turned green and glitchy. I thought "This must be a prank that CZcams is pulling. All I have to do is close it out and come back and everything will be fine." Then the green glitch was still there on my home screen. I did what we're told to do, turning my phone off and on again and it was gone. I was able to make that comment without issue. I even thought of asking if anyone else was affected. It's just weird that you mention a green glow after what happened yesterday.
I'm from Romania and have heard some mentions of strigoi but mostly read about it in the exposition they had at Transylvania castle
I like to imagine that man who is a garlic knot is just constantly screaming
One version of this that I’ve heard is how people would leave garlic outside funeral homes (or historical regional equivalents) to absorb the smell of the dead. So the logical conclusion they’d have is that if the dead came to walk up on you the garlic would absorb their essence and weaken them.
8:43 so we're just gonna leave ramps off the list there?
I remember in that show “being human” the vampire character would involuntarily expose his fangs when near garlic 😂
I for real thought MatPat was lying about the subscribing thing. It works!!
6:47 has to be my favorite descriptions of witch hunts ever!
There’s a reason newer vampire media retconned the garlic thing but ig matpat won’t reference that
11:34 ig he did sort of?
i've always wondered why i never had an aversion to garlic, it all makes sense now, but ill just keep away from the flowers just in case!
Omg the button actually glows when he says subscribe the first time AND THEN SPARKLES WHEN YOU CLICK IT! That’s why we trust you Matt✨
Matpat was probably making this video while on the fnaf movie set 🦅

12:21 There's NO WAY Mat didn't intend for this phrase to be alliterative. "...part of the plant produced as part of the reproductive process..."
Wow, the animation is smooth, especially for a food theory channel
I would love to see a theory about why soda water has a different taste to normal water even though it is just gas
Thanks for sharing some spooky garlic and vampire facts with us! The myth about garlic originating from the left footprint of Satan was an interesting bit of lore.
A while back, I saw on a TV program that boiling unpeeled garlic before putting it in food apparently helps prevent the garlic smell from lingering in your breath after consumption (or reduces the smell at the very least). I haven't been able to test this myself, but the idea is interesting.
Hey whatever happened to that guy who allegedly found shrimp tails in his cinnamon toast crunch? I'd love to see Matt do a deep dive theory into how something like that could happen, regulations, & whether or not the guy was actually telling the truth. I've seen a lot of mixed results as to whether or not he was honest.
