THIS ARTICLE WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FROM THE LATEST EPISODE OF AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.!
I'm going to make this short, because I don't have a lot of time to write this article. In the season finale of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, we get our first look at Skye's father. From behind, we see a man covered in blood, sitting in a tub, which is most likely filled with that blood. This got me thinking, could Skye be a vampire? If so, and if she's one from the comics, which one is she?

Lilith Drake:
Lilith is the daughter of Dracula and Zofia, born after the arranged marriage set by Dracula's father. After Dracula's father's death, a year after the birth of Lilith, he cast Zofia out and Lilith was put in the care of a gypsy named Gretchin. Lilith grew up hating her father, now a vampire; he attacked the gypsy village and killed Gretchin's son Arini and in retailiation she casted a spell on Lilith turning her into a vampire without some of the normal weakness other vampires have. Unlike normal vampires she's a daywalker and she can mesmerize humans with just a gaze.
While Lilith's origin doesn't line up exactly with Skyes, there are some similarities such as: A father that's a monster and likes blood, being raised in a village that was attacked by her father(and mother in Skye's origin), They are both monsters themselve, just like their father, and both have their ways of mesmerizing people(Skye was Ward's main weakness, she even had Fitz wanting her, Coulson ended up forming a fatherly bond with her, and she even got May and Simmons to like her). If Skye is a vampire, the reason for her being able to go out in the sunlight could be because the spell(if they go with it being a spell) that made her vampire, allowed her to be a daywalker like Lilith.
