Vampyrìsme... is the fifth studio album by Italian band Theatres des Vampires, released on September 15, 2003 by Beyond... Productions. It is a re-recorded version of the band's 1996 debut album Vampyrìsme, Nècrophilie, Nècrosadisme, Nècrophagie. The album was re-recorded entirely by Theatres des Vampires with guest appearances from former Cradle of Filth guitarist Gian Pyres and Christian Death vocalist Valor Kand. The album has also four new bonus tracks.

"Kingdom of Vampires" is a re-recording of the eponymous song present in Theatres des Vampires' 1995 demo Nosferatu, eine Simphonie des Gravens.

Critical reception

Desibeli.net called the production poor and said the bonus tracks are better than the tracks on the main album.[1] Noise.fi also didn't like the production and said there are lack of hooks in the songs.[3] Metalitalia.com said the album is enjoyable but mainly intended for die-hard fans.[2]
