* [[And I Must Scream]]: In the books, the characters most often neutralize vampires by encasing them in bronze. This doesn't kill them. It just leaves them trapped inside unable to do anything until the bronze wears away and they can {{spoiler|turn themselves into mist}} and escape.
* [[Attempted Rape]]: A gang tries to rape Jody when she's in a laundromat on the seedy side of town. [[Curb Stomp Battle|It doesn't end well for them]].

* [[Mundane Utility]]:
** Upon concluding that Vampire saliva acts as a healing agent (primarily to keep those tell-tale neck wounds from being noticed), Tommy tries to convince Jody to fix his cuticles and get rid of a blister on his toe. Jody is not amused.
** After reading about Dracula turning into mist, Tommy tries to get Jody to do it so she can unclog the hair trap in their bathroom drain. He ends up buying a bottle of DrainDran-o.
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]: Jody's reaction after she throws a pot at her boyfriend's head and drains his blood. She initially believes he might even be dead.
* [[Nightmare Fetishist]]: Tommy. His first words after learning his girlfriend was a vampire? "That is the most awesome thing I've ever heard. Let's have sex with our socks off." The sequel gives us Abby Normal, a [[Perky Goth]] who didn't just [[Jumped At the Call|jump at the call]] to be a vampire's minion but hunted it down and demanded the job.
