I've read many old horror stories about vampires, and they all seem to take place in Styria. I'm surprised this has not been mentioned in the wiki article, but I don't feel qualified to chime in on it "officially." Sheridan Le Fanu's "Camilla" is the only one I can think of offhand, but I have an old anthology with Dracula in the title, and there are three or four stories in it that take place in Styria.
