Methods of dispensing with a vrykolakas are much the same as the western concept of the vampire; impaling. But there are other methods for this creature that work just as well, such as cremating the suspected corpse and even a standard exorcism is said to do the trick.
The vrykolakas is just one of many different variations of legendary undead creatures that resemble the western concept of the vampire. Perhaps, when dealing with folklore, we should take this into account.
Imagine a film based on the vrykolakas instead of the western vampire, with powers greatly expanded from simple blood-drinking and wandering in the night.
