I imagine it's hard enough moving into a new house without monsters smoking stinkweed in the bathroom. Having followed the drafts, I was looking forward to see how you ended it. I think you did well, and I can appreciate the flawless change you made from Ralphie knowing about Vlad the Impaler (in the draft) to having Count Von Count being one of his only vampire references (in the finished story). I liked how obsessive the house's previous owner was with her method of protecting against vampires. I also loved the foreshadowing by comparing the weapon the woman was found with versus the wounds she had (I've used an Exacto knife in my art and classwork, so I know what kind of marks it makes). Overall it's a good, unsettling story. It's one of those that starts out as a basic slice of life story, and then as you progress, and after you finish, you wonder, "What just happened? What's going on here?"
