Vampire Missionaries (Short Comedy Sketch)

A funny video about Vampires (I mean *CENSORED*) trying to fit into the modern society ingrained with many hurtful stereotypes. Subscribe for more funny short comedy sketches & films: http://bit.ly/laurisb

Vampire Missionaries is about two elder vampires (I mean elders from The Congregation of Creatures of Unusual Nocturnal Thirst) trying to tell people about how Dracula could enter their lives and about the different benefits of eternal life. They even have pamphlets!
