“Interlude with a Vampire” contains examples of…

  • Burning with Anger: Upon seeing that Igor mixed up his schedule, The Count gets so angry his reading glasses burn away.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: The Count originally goes to Mina's house intending to drink the blood of who he believes is "Nina Parker, Age 17". On realizing he's instead gone to the home of "Mina Harper, Age 7", he sends her back to bed.
  • The Glomp: Upon first meeting him, Mina glomps the Count and hugs his legs in a vice grip.
    The Count: (chuckles) Affectionate little monster, aren't you?
  • Suddenly Speaking: Aside from hearing her giggling at the beginning of the short, Mina spends most of short completely silent, until her father comes upstairs and asks about the "doll" she’s been playing with (The Count keeping still amongst her stuffed animals).
    Mr. Harper: What exactly is this thing?
    Mina: (hugging The Count) He's my best friend.
  • Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Upon realizing that the supposedly young woman he was planning to feed off of is actually only seven years old, the Count is quick and content to just send Mina back to bed with no trouble. Even when Mina's clinginess causes him problems getting a meal, he never resorts to anything worse than trying to shake her off.
