  • Lord Ruthven è un personaggio immaginario, figura principale del celebre racconto Il vampiro (The Vampyre) di John William Polidori, che l'autore ideò sul modello dell'eroe byroniano. Il personaggio è ripreso nell'opera Der Vampyre di Heinrich Marschner su libretto di Wilhelm August Wohlbrück e nel dramma di James Planché Il vampiro. Il personaggio rappresenta il capostipite dei vampiri letterari moderni e il suo stesso nome, prima della comparsa di Dracula di Bram Stoker, era sinonimo di vampiro. Un esempio di questo fenomeno lo si può trovare nel romanzo Il conte di Montecristo di Dumas, in cui il conte veniva paragonato a lord Ruthven a causa del suo aspetto pallido e del suo sguardo penetrante. La figura di Ruthven si stacca nettamente dal tipico cadavere vivente del folklore, per trasformarsi non solo in un completo essere umano (che appare come vivo e dotato di volontà, sentimenti e intelletto), ma addirittura in un aristocratico (cosa impensabile nella precedente tradizione vampiresca).
