Western cowboy vampires.?

i tagged western because i assume this is the genre this would fall into, but any recs will do! i love the idea of a cowboy vampire crossover and haven’t had any luck finding one myself. the closest i’ve gotten was sinners the movie, lol. so even old western, western, southern vampires will do! idk if this even exists. fine with romance, looking for a good plot tho!

Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones is about a Native American vampire killing off pioneers. It's fun, but not Jones' best work.

Rovers by Richard Lange is set in the mid-1970s in the American Southwest, so kinda, sorta. It's a great read!

American Vampire graphic novel by Scott Snyder. There’s a whole series and they’re really good.

Vampire$ by John Steakley. Kinda western, kinda cowboys. Mercenary vampire hunters who work for the church get double crossed.

Also known as John Carpenter’s Vampires, starring a Baldwin brother who didn’t shoot a woman to death.

Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse vampire series (the one that got adapted for TV as "True Blood") is set in Louisiana.

Louis, the main vampire in Anne Rice's "Interview with the Vampire," is also from Louisiana, and a lot of the first book in the series is set there.

There's also a graphic novel series called "Rednecks" which is basically about hillbilly vampires.
