I got the impression that he was trying to buy time until he was SURE it was a vampire, and playing his cards close to the chest in case Dracula hypnotized one of his friends into talking.
Also to say it was a vampire would sound insane. He had to know for sure.

It suffers from everyone knowing what a Dracula is. If you weren't familiar with vampires in general it would be a lot more spooky and mysterious.

You can have a character mention in an aside that Dr. Van Helsing has a unique way of writing or speaking that takes some getting used to.

And every time Van Helsing comes up with a plan to save Lucy it gets ruined by the jackasses surrounding him.

See now if they said that outright it would make more sense. Now that I know that I won't stop and decipher every sentence.
As it is, it comes off almost Biblical in that sentences are bizarrely constructed with odd grammar that makes you go "wait, what?"

Judy Tenuta made a career out of doing standup poorly.

Thats not how he dies in the book.
They decapitate him and stab him in the heart at the same time, with regular knives.
