How to Get Rid of Vampirism in Skyrim

Vampirism in Skyrim is both a blessing and a curse and while players can enjoy pretty neat superpowers while being a Vampire, this comes with many risks and issues. If you don’t want to spend any more days (nights) as a Vampire in Skyrim and want a cure, here’s how to get rid of Vampirism.

How to Cure Vampirism in Skyrim

There are a handful of ways to cure Vampirism in Skyrim and become human again.

• Drink a Cure Disease Potion – but only in the first three days, before you are “turned” completely.
• Talk to a Dawnguard member, or an Innkeeper, which will start a quest that will lead to your cure. You will need to seek out Falion, a mage located in Morthal (a city in the north, south-east of Solitude). Filled Black Soul Gem is the required reagent for the ritual/ceremony that will restore your humanity. The quest is called Rising at Dawn.
• Use a console command (cheater!)
