Nandor the Relentless is one of the main vampires in What We Do in the Shadows, the FX mockumentary series that premiered in 2019 and grew out of the 2014 film of the same name. Played by Kayvan Novak, Nandor is a former Ottoman warrior who now shares a Staten Island house with other vampires and struggles hilariously with modern life. Short voice clips of the character circulate widely as reaction sounds because his formal delivery makes even small moments feel theatrical. Fans reuse them in edits, memes and gaming videos to add instant vampire drama.
