Thanks for this comparison of the Nosferatus (Nosferati?). One element I saw reflected across all 3 was the precise use of lighting effects – from projected shadows to luminous haze – a feature of vampire cinema I cover in this just-published video essay intransition.openlibhums.org/article/id/1...

Showcasing a range of vampires from the shadowy to the shimmering, it reflects on the creature's absent mirror image and predatory stare, and highlights vampire cinema’s striking optical aesthetics: from silvery b&w to luscious colour, sharp focus to foggy haze, and celluloid glow to digital blur.
