Recently this authentic vampire killing kit circa 1800s was sold at an auction for $14,850. This is a complete kit that comes fully equipped – stakes, mirrors, a gun with silver bullets (because where there are Vampires there might be Werewolves), crosses, a Bible, holy water, candles and garlic and most likely endorsed by Val Hellsing himself.
