I mean, if you shoved a jungle gym in my face I would probably have an issue with it.

As a practical similarity, ever heard of speech-jamming? The idea is that you can play someone’s own voice back to them with a slight delay and it will cause them try and listen and speak at the same time resulting in slower speaking or even the inability to speak normally.

I feel like a vampire could have unique instincts or mental processes that could be messed with in a similar way. Maybe it’s like how people can see faces in very simple shapes; they see threats instead.
