A cannon seems redundant as most vampire lore allows them to fly or transform into something enabling flight. Maybe a cannon is for rapid deployment of vampires? The question then is how do you prevent immolation during firing?
We’re going to try the myth that if a vampire is fired out of a cannon, using his coffin as a sabot, into a picket fence… will the resultant impaling be enough to render the undead dead dead.
Vampire canon = body of official literature regarding vampires.
Vampire cannon= device for launching vampires using gunpowder.
