Project 1138 is a project that LuthorCorp conducted an antidote after finding Kryptonite which soaked in the water table, creating Irradiated stalactites which infected vampire bats.
These vampires bats have strange virus, meaning anyone they bitten becomes mutated in the same way like them.
Victims that are bitten by these Vampire bats will show symptoms such as enhanced strength, enlarged canine teeth/fangs, an aversion to sunlight, a hunger for blood/meat, and have infectious blood that can turn anyone who ingested it into a metahuman with vampirc-like traits.

- The "1138" of the project title may be a reference to George Lucas' "THX 1138". Carrie Fisher — who played Princess Leia in the Star Wars franchise — appeared as Pauline Kahn in this episode (Thirst). Lucas himself references the number in many of his projects, including Indiana Jones and Star Wars.
