maybe it's Disabled Leftist Brain talking but I am incapable of interpreting vampirism as anything other than a chronic illness or other disability. Like, hyperspecialized diet, sunlight intolerance, silver and garlic allergy, etc. are all things that any halfway decent society would provide accomodations for. A fictional Fantasy Leftist Utopia would have means by which vampires could access enough human blood to suit their needs, as well as anything else to make unlife easier.
Vampire-friendly churches with no crucifixes that allow religious vampires to continue worshipping, jewerly made in silver-free facilities, mandatory night shifts for essential businesses, etc.
You could write some really poignant disability metaphors in vampire fiction

Being into gothic horror is wild, because you’ll look up the reviews/public opinion on a book and all the posts will be like “ugh, this was insufferable. The main character was the most melodramatic whiny narcissist cunt who’s perspective I’ve ever had the displeasure of following. When the main character wasn’t whining, it was just pages and pages of the most useless boring shit describing stupid landscapes over and over again. Boring and insufferable to read.”
And then you’ll get the book and read it and it’ll be like “Hi, I’m gothic protagonist. My entire family got brutally murdered by an unknown person and I also got horrifically abused as a child and struggle with severe mental illness, and now there’s unholy paranormal forces at work all against me, but at least I have the love of my life and my closest friends who I’d kill and die for and they’d do the same for me. Even though I’m cripplingly psychologically unwell and severely burdened with the mass of terrible things in my past, I’m going to figure out and track down the thing that killed my family and seek to destroy it, whilst poetically mirroring my suffering with the most beautiful and profound descriptions of the nature around me that you’ve ever read, contrasting the horror of nature with the beauty and goodness of it and giving you an existential crisis. This book is going to make you so ridiculously attached to these characters and change your whole perception of the life you lead.”
