IIRC, canon!Harry met a vampire in book VI. Does anyone know if they exist in the MORverse?
My instinct would be that rational!Harry would have already encountered them while researching immortality—especially since he frequently compares the wizarding world with D&D, where the primary form of magical immortality is to become an undead wizard, or “lich”, although I doubt he would actually accept immortality via vampirism—they may be bound by magical law (or at least the Statute of Secrecy) but I expect it still screw with your utility function, magic and social/legal status.
I don’t remeber him explicitly dismissing this path, which could be conservation of detail, indicative that vampires don’t exist in MOR, or me misremembering.
