I was a kid when I first went to Whitby and had just seen Dracula for the first time. My dad told me that fish & chips with lots of salt & vinegar was very effective at keeping vampires away.
Whenever I visit the seaside, even though I don't believe a word of it of course, I still have fish & chips. Just to be on the safe side.

Bought up at the seaside at the outdoor pool all summer, still go to the gym there
