Didn't Bram Stoker's Dracula drink cursed blood in the first instance to become a vampyr and later offered blood to Wilhelmina to convert her?

That's about as far back as I have read. I know that the legends of vampires are millenia old and too widespread to uncover the origins of that aspect of the legend. I know the term 'vampire' wasn't used 'til the 19th century so, I suppose, the answer has to be between now and then.
