YES! McKinley and Hambly both do a magnificent job of conveying Otherness to their vampires. I was thinking more like, say, BtVS or IwtV, which feel much less Other to me.
THIS WAS SO INTERESTING! Thank you for sharing! I know very little about medieval lit, so I wasn't familiar with most of these, but it was fun to read about them!

I think you would like de Bodard's Xuya universe — and a lot of it is available for free as short stories online, so you would be able to get a sense for it before committing to paying any money. Most works in the universe are standalone.
Interesting! I'll check them out--thank you for the rec!
