A cannon seems redundant as most vampire lore allows them to fly or transform into something enabling flight. Maybe a cannon is for rapid deployment of vampires? The question then is how do you prevent immolation during firing?
We’re going to try the myth that if a vampire is fired out of a cannon, using his coffin as a sabot, into a picket fence… will the resultant impaling be enough to render the undead dead dead.

Why bother? Vampires can only die in specific ways, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never seen “getting shot out of a cannon” on that list
Has anyone tried?

Encase the vampire in a sabot first.
