Actually Not a Vampire: The main antagonist in The Keep is an Atlantean sorcerer/antichrist, but he pretends to be a Wallachian nationalist vampire in order to persuade an old professor to help him, and fakes a set of weaknesses different from his real ones.

Night of the Living Mooks

comment
In The Keep, this is implied to be the fate of Rasalom's victims. He can control the bodies of those he kills, and we see that Woermann is still conscious and thinking after being killed by Rasalom. Woermann even frantically tries to do something, anything, to stop the way Rasalom is using him but is helpless to so. So when Rasalom goes all Night of the Living Mooks toward the end of the book, there's a chance that every single dead soldier was desperately trying to resist being forced to kill their friends and fellow soldiers and were completely helpless to stop what they saw themselves doing. Creepy...
