This results in many failed attempts to slay the Draculas. It is revealed that his obsession caused his marrage with Mina to break up before the series started. Van Helsing desperately wants his son, Jonno, to follow in his path as a slayer, despite Jonno's initial resistance to the idea.

!!!Actor: Keith-Lee Castle.
-> ''[[WinstonChurchill "We shall bite them on the beaches, we shall bite them in the fields and the streets. We shall bite them in the hills; we will never surrender."]]''

The father of Vlad and Ingrid, Count Dracula adores being a Vampire and cannot understand Vlad's lack of enthusiasm. While the Count claims to be "the Prince of Darkness", he often shows compassion and frequently ignores Vampire convention, such as assosiating with humans. The Count desires to make Vlad into his true heir, and is frequently dissapointed with his son's desire to be normal. He ignores Ingrid because she's a girl.

Magda is the ex-wife of Count Dracula (though she claims the two never married), and the mother of Vlad and Ingrid. Before the series started she [[VampireWerewolfLoveTriangle ran off with a werewolf]] named Patrick, with whom, in Series 3, it is revealed she had a son, Wolfie. Magda returns back to her vampire family occasionally, solely to manipulate them into giving her something she wants.

!!Magda Carmilla Elizabeta Bathoria Westenra
* AbusiveParents: Has been leaving the family since Vlad and Ingrid were both really young. Shows up only to utterly manipulate them all. Arguably gets on better with Ingrid, but that doesn't really mean much.
* TheCaligula: Kind of sort of in her series 3 appearance.
* FemmeFatale: Uses this to manipulate The Count as she pleases
* [[IHateYouVampireDad I Hate You Vampire Children]]: She really seems to resent having to play Mother
* MissingMom: Shows up twice a season. Implied in the first series to only be keeping in contact with Ingrid.
* ParentService: Actress Donna Grant is gorgeous and Magda can be described as being 'for the Dads'
* VampiresAreSexGods: Magda really plays to this more so than any other adult vampire the show has.

!!Renfield
* AbusiveParents: Not Renfield himself, but his father is a great example of this. He's more slightly veering towards failing sadistic babysitter when it comes to his interactions with the young Dracula's.
* [[AmbiguouslyGay Ambiguously Bi]]: Generally is attractive to otherwise unconventionally attractive females. However, often shows himself to be possibly attracted to the Count, getting jealous when he spends time with other people who aren't him. That being said, it's Renfield, so best not to think too hard about it.
* ButtMonkey: Prime example
* DisguisedInDrag: Renfield in a dress Mentioned in series 3 as being a plan that "never fails"

!!Robin Branagh
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Due to his semi-gothic persona and obsession with vampires, Robin is something of an annoyance to his elder siblings Ian and Paul (and vice versa)
* ChangelingFantasy: In one episode, at least.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial
* YourVampiresSuck: Despite the fact that they are best friends, this is often Robin's reaction to Vlad's powerless state.
