Passing unfortunates staked along the path to the castle, villagers with torches and garlic, crucifixes fourished, wooden stakes at the ready, flood the portcullis, lusting for the blood of the vampire.

But wait! Looking inside their fear is unbounded as they see the latest abomination of Vlad Tepes, formerly known as Vlad the Impaler. They break and run in panic, having recognized their burgomeister and the village council in a grisly line dance choreographed by a 10-meter iron sword.

Now known as Vlad the Kebabber.
