As a matter of fact yes.

Just as an excess of iron is a debilitating condition in a living person, vampires too can suffer from the condition. I have know certain vampires to become very irritable and discomforted by 'what is probably' just that.

They are however able to self-regulate the excess by excreting it from their pores (sweating). A vampire can recover from such an imbalance in a matter of days.

There are 16 known oxides and oxyhydroxides of iron and a 'sweating' vampire can express a few of these, although only one at a time. I know of only five such expressions (not first hand, from records kept by the vampires themselves). Such sweat can therefore be either black, green, orange, red, (or even gold if accompanying with Sulfur poisoning.)

In vampire lore, iron is often considered to be harmful to vampires, with some stories depicting it as a way to ward them off or harm them. This idea likely stems from iron's historical associations with purity, protection, and warding off evil spirits.
