The dodder plant resembles nothing so much as a vampire—at least in behaviour.

According to the NPR story Devious Dodder Vine Sniffs Out Its Victims, it smells the plant it wants to attach itself to (it prefers tomatoes to wheat, for example) and moves toward it.

Then, it becomes a parasite for life on the host:

Swarthmore College biology professor Colin Purrington says the vine starts out as just a tiny tendril with no roots or leaves. It then has about a week to find a host plant it can wrap itself around. The vampire-like dodder then sinks its fangs into its victim and starts drinking.

According to Wikipedia, it has a raft of folk names: “devil’s guts, devil’s hair, devil’s ringlet, goldthread, hailweed, hairweed, hellbine, love vine, pull-down, strangleweed, and witch’s hair.”
