On a first date, when I walked into the lady's house I noticed a Tom Wolfe novel on her coffee table. When I asked her what she thought of it she said it was "mind candy". I've never forgotten that phrase.

The OP refers to Helsing ignoring the maids as donors for the transfusions.
I view this as a result of the rigid structure of Victorian social levels. The upper classes would consider it inappropriate.
