You never know when you’ll have to defend yourself against one of these bloodsuckers, so be prepared to bring a vampire to his knees.

You Will Need

  • Garlic
  • A cross
  • Rice, grain, or seeds
  • Lots of holy water
  • A stake made of ash, oak, or cedar
  • An ax
  • Matches
  • Some water
  • A nail
  • Some vinegar
How To Fight Off a Vampire: Wear garlic

Step 1: Wear garlic

Discourage the undead from wanting to bite you in the first place by wearing garlic around your neck; the pungent bulb is thought to repel vampires because it deters their blood-sucking cousins, mosquitoes.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Throw seeds

Step 2: Throw seeds

If a vampire is approaching you, spill a bag of millet, seed, or rice in front of it. According to both Eastern European folklore and Chinese mythology, it will be unable to resist counting each and every grain, giving you time to escape.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Head for daylight

Step 3: Head for daylight

If possible, expose the vampire to the sun; maneuvering it into sunlight is a sure way to finish it off.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Toss holy water

Step 4: Toss holy water

Toss holy water at it. The challenge here is that you need a lot — a few sprinkles won’t do it.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Drive a stake

Step 5: Drive a stake

Time to come in for the kill. Take a stake made of ash, oak, or cedar and drive it straight through the vampire’s heart and into something that will pin it — like the wall, the floor, or its coffin.

In Macedonia, they forego the stake and just drive a nail through the vampire’s navel.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Cut off its head

Step 6: Cut off its head

Once you have the vampire pinned, take an ax and chop off its head.

Boil the head in vinegar; that’s they way they finish off the undead in Crete.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Incinerate it

Step 7: Incinerate it

Once it’s decapitated, make a big fire and toss both the head and body into it. Poke them around until they’re reduced to a pile of ashes.

How To Fight Off a Vampire: Dispose of the ashes

Step 8: Dispose of the ashes

Throw the ashes into some water and rest easy, knowing the undead is undone.

In modern-day Romania, vampire killing — that is, digging up a dead relative believed to be one of the undead, cutting out their heart, burning it to ashes, and drinking those ashes mixed with water — is illegal but still practiced.

there is a true story about a vampire. but it proves most of the propaganda about them is fake (ie garlic and crosses) which is why this video is useless. and besides, who would be willing to carry that with them everywhere? AND they barely do any damage to you just leave you with a bruise you probably wont find anyway.
