Line 21:

* [[Horrible Judge of Character]]: At least, when it came to {{spoiler|Boris post-transformation}}. Possibly more a [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]] on Vlad's part.

** Many of the other characters think that Vlad is this, as he often trusts those who would kill him, like {{spoiler|Ingrid or the Van Helsings}}.

* [[I Hate You Vampire Dad|I Hate You Vampire Parents]]: Vlad has touches of this at times. Far worse with Magda than with the Count.

* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Ingrid is excited to become evil incarnate by joining with her blood mirror self, but draws the line when it suggests she kill her boyfriend Will and decides to run off.

* [[Femme Fatale]]: Ingrid in series 3. In her own words: "twice as beautiful, three times as evil."

* [[Green Eyed Monster]]: A lot of her hostility towards her family clearly comes from not only being [[The Unfavorite]] all her life, but the universe seemingly agreeing by {{spoiler|making her brother [[The Chosen One]] despite his complete disinterest in it.}}

* [[I Hate You, Vampire Dad|I Hate You Vampire Children]]: She really seems to resent having to play Mother.

* [[Missing Mom]]: Shows up twice a season. Implied in the first series to only be keeping in contact with Ingrid.

{{quote| ''"Sure as boyscouts sing 'round camp fires, this whole school is full of vampires. Drinking blood, causing pain, and I won't rest 'til they are slain."'' }}

Eric Van Helsing is an ineffectual, yet extreemly dedicated, slayer. Van Helsing's cover identity is as a woodwork teacher at Stokely Grammar, where he initially believes Robin to be a vampire, but soon decides to focus on Vlad. This results in many failed attempts to slay the Draculas. It is revealed that his obsession caused his marrage with Mina to break up before the series started. Van Helsing desperately wants his son, Jonno, to follow in his path as a slayer, despite Jonno's initial resistance to the idea. {{spoiler|Van Helsing is [[Laser Guided Amnesia|mind-wiped at the end of Series 2]], and in Series 3, it's revealed that he was [[Bus Crash|killed by vampires]]}}.
