      They could do reenactments of how experienced hunters deal with things nowadays. A wisend Dean Winchester type sees a small horde of zombies and ghouls shambling towards his front lawn in the early morning hours. So he casually walks outside while sipping his coffee, blesses the spigot, turns on the sprinklers, and then walks back inside. Smash cut to a necromancer angrily calling tech support to make his claim.

    The monsters might still live in your area, but they’ll smell worse, melt in the neighbor’s lawn sprinklers, get burned by eating people who drink and bathe in holy tap water, and most likely move away.

      @@clayxros576 It's also a volume thing. The oceans hold a *lot* of water, so you'd need a few *tons* of relics to cover all of it. Plus, in most traditions that I know of, holy water also has to be a certain level of physical purity. Most water straight from a freshwater lake wouldn't fit the bill with all the dissolved poop and plant matter in it, so *ocean* water definitely wouldn't qualify. Honestly, Dracula could probably just desecrate the cistern and have it back to normal, John's probably being overly cautious because he doesn't want to risk losing one of the ACME's oldest accounts.

    Bit of a logical problem there....
    Holy relic touches cistern. Cistern then turns into a holy relic.
    But since the Cistern is a holy relic, doesn't that mean that what it's touching now becomes another holy relic?
    So now the earth around the cistern is holy. And it spreads. So the castle is now on holy ground. And the castle itself is a holy relic. And poof, no more vampires.....

      Running water doesn't kill vampires. They just can't cross sources of flowing water, like rivers or streams, because of the purity of such water was considered holy in European folklore, and thus was able to repel unholy beings. But modern media seems to make the distinction between "pure" water that repels, and "holy" water that kills.
