Vampire's Guide to Vellington is a 2014 short film and ad campaign by Wellington NZ to promote What We Do in the Shadows (film), and the city of Wellington as a vampire-friendly place to visit.
As part of the campaign, the 'W' in the Wellington Blown Away sign on Miramar hill was temporarily changed to a blood-red 'V'.[1]
