Vampire Killing Kit Tutorial
Given our recent discussions on the subject I was extremely pleased to find these videos. From "MovieBuff290" on YouTube comes this amazingly useful tutorial on creating a vampire killing kit. He goes over every step from the construction of the case to acquiring the various items that fill it. The only detail I don't like, and this is a minor quibble, is the use of twine for the handgrips on the stakes and mallet. Don't let that detract from the rest of the project. It's not only a great prop, but I'm sure these videos will inspire more than a few people to tackle making their own kits.
The true bane of vampires is detection. Once you know one is about, you can use its habits and weaknesses to destroy the creature. Remember, secrecy is the vampire’s best weapon. Wikipedia has a pretty exhaustive article that discusses vampire destruction, culture by culture. I just reread it and recommend it as an excellent concise guide.
I have a guilty pleasure: The Brothers Grimm movie with its gimmicks and props.
