Trivia

  • In traditional folklore, these items are essential tools for vampire hunters: garlic repels vampires, but they can be killed by a wooden stake driven through the heart.
  • The name of this item set, "The Camper Van Helsing" is a pun on camper van (which Sniper lives in) and Professor Abraham van Helsing from Bram Stoker's 1897 novel, Dracula.
