Our Vampires Are Different/Western Animation


 * An episode of Mighty Max, "Fly By Night", took Our Vampires Are Different to its natural extreme by featuring a female vampire, Countess Musca, who ignored almost all of these vampire tropes (aside from the obvious blood-drinking). To top it all off, instead of a bat, she turned into a giant horsefly.
 * In Count Duckula, a vampire who has been killed can be brought back by a once-a-century secret ritual. In the most recent ritual, tomato ketchup was accidentally used instead of blood, resulting in the title character becoming a vegetarian. And he's a duck, which is pretty different all on its own.
 * In Scooby Doo and The Reluctant Werewolf, the Big Bad is a vampire named Count Dracula. However, he is comically inept at his goal of making Shaggy lose the Monster Car Road race. He did find a way to counter the sun weakness, by wearing sunscreen.
 * Likewise with his partner (wife?) Vanna-pira. Unlike the green skinned Dracula, you could mistake her for human. Its only her yellow eyes and grown out nails that peg her as a vampire.
 * Not to mention his teenage daughter Sybella, from Scooby Doo and The Ghoul School, who has purple skin (and hair) instead of pale white, and seems to be immune to sunlight. She's simply "fang-tastic"!
 * Buzz Lightyear of Star Command has a robotic vampire called NOS-4-A2 who drains the energy of robots and other machinery as opposed to drinking blood. He also has mind control abilities over said machinery. In combination with radiation from a certain moon, it also can turn humans into feral mechanical "wire-wolves".
 * In an episode of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, a vampiric tomato was going to suck blood from someone's neck until the local censor said that sucking blood wasn't "nice" enough, and suggested that he try kissing instead. He does, but that turns her into a vampire anyway, and starts a race of vampires who are obsessed with smooching their victims instead of drinking their blood. Also, the transformation comes with a costume change.
 * And Tara, the bubbly humanoid tomato, became a sexy vampire herself!
 * Need Proof? Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 right here.
 * An episode of Moville Mysteries had the main characters believing an exterminator was a vampire... and he was, sort of. He was actually the "adopted son" of a group of vampiric mosquitoes led by a human-sized, repulsive queen who just happened to sleep in a coffin. The exterminator's Game Face had him adopt insect-like traits and he winds up being ripped apart and eaten by a swarm of hungry frogs. The queen and her spawn are destroyed by a giant, makeshift bug zapper.
 * On Adventure Time, Marceline the Vampire Queen can drink blood, but actually only needs to eat the color red (which she can suck out of anything, leaving it gray). This does not necessarily make her a Friendly Neighborhood Vampire, however---she seems to like the title characters, but once mad, she transforms into a horrific bat-monster and tries to kill you really fast.
 * Her dad, on the other hand... well, maybe he used to be a vampire. He's a soul-swallowing Eldritch Abomination whose real head is in his throat, and can grow out when he gets more powerful. And it looks nothing like a bat.
 * In the Halloween Episode of DuckTales (1987), "Ducky Horror Picture Show", Scrooge unknowingly allows a bunch of monsters into his new community center, and his home, one of which being a Vampire. It is discovered when Hewey, Dewey, and Louie bring him apples, that he eats those and does not bite people or animals. They keep his teeth shiny, you know.
 * Codename: Kids Next Door features the villain Count Spankulot who, well, spanks children. Doing so without his gloves will transform the victim into a spanking vampire himself. However, he still has the traditional weakness to garlic.
 * The Batman vs. Dracula has a version of Dracula who drains blood from people and makes them into "Lost Ones" who are minion vampires but can be turned back to human by scientific means. It's stated that he can kill people by draining their blood but it never happens, this being a cartoon where Nobody Can Die. Minion vampires always look like pale monstrous creatures, but Dracula himself can look human when he feeds enough.
 * It should be noted that among his minions is a vampire Joker, and this continuity's version of the Joker is a feral gorilla-like prop comic, build like the original Beast and with lime green dreds. He robs a blood bank—which consists of a dramatically-lit warehouse lined with eighty-foot shelves of glass jars of blood. The Batman captures him and uses him as the experimental rat as he tries to cure vampirism.
 * Ironic as it seems, in an episode of the Superfriends called "Invasion of the Vampires", the vampires didn't bite, but shot laser beams from their eyes to make vampires in numberous amounts! How did the Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder escape from joining them? They had visited a cave filled with normal bats by accident searching for the vampires!
 * The Superfriends also faced Vampiress, the Voodoo Vampire.
 * The above example sounds very much so like an episode of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends which featured Dracula, Wolfman, and Frankenstein's monster, all using laser eyes to turn people into new monsters. Well except the Creature, which shot them from the bolts in his neck. Defeating the trio turned all the infected back to normal.
 * In Darkwing Duck, the vampire is a huge potato. Talk about different. It seems to mostly be a roaring beast, and when it captures its victims and does whatever it does offscreen, the result is a character with an intense desire for potato-based foods, Mind Control Eyes, no will other than to sit around and watch TV (a couch potato), and sprouts coming out of their heads. Its weakness is someone saying "potato backwards" (literally, "potato backwards", not "otatop") while shaking out the pollen of the particular plant that its creator, Bushroot, happens to be. (Incidentally, on his way into the forest, he runs into some hicks who perform some... interesting vampahr tests on him. )
 * "Zack, get the diesel fuel."
