Biography
A version of Vampira existed in the home universe of the Lich Emperor Junter and his Vampire assistant Ibdis. When the hapless pair found themselves in need of a new apartment, Ibdis visited Vampira's house to see if they could rent a room there, but the two reacted negatively to the prospect of sharing territory when they realised that they were both Vampires, scuppering those hopes.

Behind the scenes
Vampira is the (copyrighted) main character of the cult 1950s TV series The Vampira Show. Created and portrayed by Maila Nurmi, she was one of the earliest known “horror host” characters. Notably, her appearance was inspired by Morticia Addams, who also made an unofficial appearance in Real Estate-Related Pun.
Although Vampira is copyrighted, Maila Nurmi played a very similar Vampire Girl in the 1959 B-movie Plan 9 from Outer Space which is in the public domain.
