Did Sauron have vampires in his service in the Third Age? For if he had, he could have sent a nazgűl - vampire assault and that would have been a match even for a bunch of elf-lords.

Oooh don't forget that Nazgul and Water don't mix!!!! All Glorfindel (who can face down all of them at once more or less) would have to do is light a torch and the Ring wraith would be caught between their least favourite elements. They would have to walk the plank! Wasn't Thuringwethil about it for vampires in ME?
