The Sun Kills Vampires Story

Victoria wanted the newborns she created to stay loyal to her, and so she told them that the old myths about vampires are true. She told them that stakes could kill them, as well as garlic, and most importantly-the sun will kill any vampire who is in the sunlight. She said that they would burst into flames that are as painful as the venom spreading when they were turned.

This caused the hunting parties to return home as soon as the sun began to rise.
