Kudos to Christie's London for their honesty in the catalog listing for this vampire killing kit:

19th Century box with later additions

Containing crucifix and four stakes, Bible from 1873, European single- barrel percusion-box lock pocket pistol, iron-mounted shot flask, bullet mould, syringe, photograph of a priest, four vials and another crucifix, all of various dates from the nineteenth to late twentieth centuries.
 To clarify the contents of the box were assembled in the second half of the 20th century.
