@amorablackrose in fact, Count von Count represents an obscure bit of vampire lore that I wish more writers used
The compulsive counting is as real of a thing as the aversion to running water@WizardOfDocs @amorablackrose Obscure? I think it's common while cool and worthy of more use in media.
People spill rice to delay a vampire (who has already untied the bootstraps), vampires use otherwise highly forbidden magic to parallelize grain counting.

@WizardOfDocs @amorablackrose I think I know of only three examples, so yes, it's obscure.
Of movies, Dracula II: Ascension, or Dracula 3000, I'm not sure which I've seen.
Of literature, The Laundry Files.
Of webcomics, The Kingfisher (gay and horror).

@lukyan @amorablackrose thanks
Honestly I think the only more obscure vampire lore I've actually seen in a story is vampire squash, which I know from Ursula Vernon's Digger -

#PostOfTheWeek (season 3):
This meme is a pun (wordplay) based on the character Count von Count from the TV show Sesame Street. 🧛
️
The setup
Someone asks:
“Who is your favorite vampire?”
The person answers:
“The muppet from Sesame Street.”
They mean Count von Count, the purple vampire who loves counting numbers.

There was an x-files episode where Mulder spilled his sunflower seeds on the floor in order to escape a vampire.
Season 5, Episode 12 "Bad Blood"

The compulsive counting is as real of a thing as the aversion to running waterI’ve only run across something like this once in modern fiction. The vampires in Chris(tina?) Lester’s “Metamor City” stories have a kind of obsessive-compulsiveness / hyper-focus. Even the city’s head vamp has to stop himself from straightening picture frames, polishing fingerprints off tabletops, and spiraling into perfectly arranging his environment when he gets stressed. Lester credits those old “counting rice grains ‘til sunrise” legends as the inspiration.
