HOUSTON (Reuters) - The arrest of a Texas man who broke into a woman's house, threw her against a wall and tried to suck her blood over the weekend has sparked discussion over the impact of vampire books and movies on U.S. youth culture.
All in all, I'd say this guy got pretty darned lucky...it could have turned out much worse for him.
And unfortunately, I can say the same thing for the woman, as well.

Does said Vampire negatively react to some Garlic sauce?

If he had broke into my house he would have wished all I had was holy water and a cross.

I will inform said Vampire, that my guns are only loaded with Magical Silver Bullets, the extra Mushrooming is a bonus.

Since there are no current production of silver bullets, it would have been a good test to see if he would be killed by copper and lead bullets. Imagine the surprise on his face if he had been shot.

Just to be clear, how do you kill a Vampire? he was already dead, so I guess the law of Murder does not apply because no one can kill something already dead!

Silver bullets are for werewolves. Vampires require a wooden stake through the heart (which has to hurt like the dickens).
You can buy silver bullets, but they are expensive. Anyone who can cast lead bullets can do silver. Usually you can find some junk silverware at flea markets or second-hand stores.

But officer I didn't kill him, he is a vampire he was already dead.

As an added bonus, that probably works pretty well against crazy mortals too (unlike holy water and direct sunlight.)

Except the melting point of silver is so much higher it will not liquify in normal lead furnaces . . .
