•  When various signs that show a corpse is turning into a vampire and the methods of preventing it from happening such as beheading the body of the corpse will be executed. In the case that a vampire has materialized from a corpse, we shall search and destroy it. Of course, the common universal way would be to drive a stake through a vampire’s heart! 

•   In folklore, with few exceptions, the vampire must remain in his grave part of the time and they usually do not travel. Like ghosts, vampires are bound to a certain location. According to some, the vampire can be as simple as determining who died first of an epidemic. Alternatively, one may strew ashes or salt around the grave of a vampire, it is also said that the beast will balk. However, more common methods of identifying a vampire would be exhuming the most recent bodies to determine, by degree of decomposition, which is the vampire. Frequently, the grave also reveals the presence of a vampire for it is likely to have fallen in or its earth has been freshly turned up. In methods to forestall or kill a vampire, a variety of things may be placed in the mouth  ( dirt, garlic, coin ) to give it something to chew on or to prevent blood-sucking or just tie it shut. Strong smelling substances like garlic or incense or garlic may be stuffed into eyes, ears, and nose or his head be worn with a head of thorns. The most dramatic treatment of driving a stake into its body, not necessarily heart, because a widespread view is that the vampire has no bones, but is a sack filled with blood which comes into being when the devil pulls the skin off a particular corpse and blows it up. Of course, the logical solution would be to puncture the corpse to let it lose its air ( actually methane) and bleed.
