According to folklore, there are a number of ways to protect yourself from vampires, including the ever-popular wearing of garlic or a religious symbol. You can slow a vampire down by giving him something to do, like pick up poppy seeds or unravel a net. (They're quite compulsive.) Cross water and he can't follow. If you can find the body, give it a bottle of whiskey or food so it doesn't have to travel. If that doesn't work, either shoot the corpse (may require a silver bullet) or drive a stake through the heart. And remember, the vampire won't enter your dwelling unless invited.

Okay, hold on there, you've got so many different myths mixed up in there razz Not saying they're not legit, just might not all work on the same vampire.
SILVER DOESN'T WORK ON VAMPIRES
Okay, now that that's out of my system... razz
Yes, not just the Christian crucifix can hurt the vampire, any religious symbol with true belief behind it is supposed to ward them off and possibly harm them.
The compulsive vampires are more the Asian kind, not so much the European.
Cross _running_ water more often is stressed.
Food and drink, yepp.
As for not entering your dwelling place unless invited...that seems to be a smaller defence, not heard of as often as the others...until Buffy: The Vampire Slayer of course razz
