Because there are so many theories, yet none fits Plato's Dialogue quite perfectly. If one gets three facts right, the remaining seven - let's say - don't fit at all. Sometimes the hypothesis becomes truly preposterous when you dig deeper, although at first glance everything seemed all right. We have either to accept a less than perfect location or decide it is nothing but a myth and a morality.

What equipment should you carry when hunting for vampires?
It depends on what rules govern the vampires you are referring to. In some fictional universes vampires can be killed by sunlight, a wooden stake to the heart or fire.
If you are unsure, bring:
wooden stake, metal stake, cross , holy water, UV light, garlic, Rifle, Machine gun, pistol, grenade and bombs, medi-kit, antidote for if you get bitten
pack of blood- distracts the vampire.
wolf- vampires either hate or love wolves, either way it will distract you (or the wolf will turn against you and try to kill you)
I recommend you don't hunt vampires, they are really hard to kill and if they don;t want to be found you will have trouble finding them.
Some vampires aren't evil and don't drink human blood, only animal blood. Or if they have to drink human blood they don't kill or turn the victims. So make sure you only hunt evil vampires!!
