I mean, vampires are immortal, not indestructible.

They're also instinctively driven to cannibalism and mass murder. The vampire is a metaphor for the aristocracy of old Europe. A seductive but ultimately grotesque ravenous monster that feeds on the common people as livestock and corrupts the very soil of the land they occupy.

Dude definitely needed therapy.

Tony Soprano also had a therapist.

That's true, but also the vampire trope has been used in various ways, eg. as a metaphor for sexuality. It'a not a clearcut thing with just one meaning.
