How can I "scratch the itch" of the urge to hunt and kill vampires?

I've been reading Dracula, and it's truly horrifying. The Count is extremely vile and cruel and conniving and I yearn to see his demise (NO SPOILERS PLS). It makes me want to kill a vampire irl, and ensure that those fiends are no more. The problem is that vampires aren't real, so my righteous hatred and contempt has nowhere to go. So how can I find an avenue to fulfill my desire?

Yeah basically Dracula is an analogy for billionaires anyway.

Somehow I never made this connection. I may be stupid.

Well back then it was the aristocracy, but then again, where's the difference

Lots here suggesting you do the Luigi thing.

If you're not game for that, I suggest playing videogames. I'm sure there has to be at least one about vampire hunting

I am down for Luigi-type things but I'm just starting to gear up w organizing irl so that'll prob be a while

In terms of games, it feels like every game wants you to be the vampire and not many want you to be the hunter, which is a shame

The problem with vampire hunting games is they typically involve other themes in addition to vampire hunting. But if you're cool with that, then The Witcher franchise might scratch the itch. I'm pretty sure the Blood and Wine expansion is vampire heavy.

Castlevania? There are a few in the series were you play as Alucard, but mostly you're human fighting vamps.

There is a remastered Legacy of Kain Defiance that came out this year. Maybe playing as a vampire will make him not so angry toward them.

There we go, the only appropriate answer and I was about to say it.

Seriously folks Eat the Fucking Rich. They’re vampiric blights on the planet and society at large.

Stake thru the hearts of them All.

Who’s that guy who takes the blood of young men to be immortal and shot a missile at a girl’s school?

Sounds like an undead demon to me.

I think it's a post where someone wants to kill vampires instead of fuck them for some weird reason.

Play RPGs? Either find someone who is willing to run a vampire hunting game, or run a game of vampires being hunted, so you can mow down the adventuring party, becoming the monster yourself.

Play the Curse of Strahd D&D campaign. Strahd is such a great villain and very Dracula-esque. Though to be fair, victory is all but guaranteed...
