Vampire slaying kit from 1890s

I'm wondering if I could use this in a story.

Vampire slaying kit from 1890s

“Cased vampire killing kit, in a rosewood and ebony case with inlaid silver stringing and mother-of-pearl inlaid plaque. Contents include a black powder percussion 2-barrel pistol, a powder horn and bullet mold, bone handled dagger with crucifix, three small crucifixes, mallet and two wooden stakes, book of common prayer, two small framed portraits of Jesus, holy water and four glass vials with crystals.”

Edit: The BS Historian suggests that kits like these are merely amusing bits of pseudohistory. Fine. I can still come up with a story of a very young Wesley putting one together. ;-)
