While Dracula from Buffy the Vampire Slayer DOES count (no pun intended), the version of Dracula from the actual novel by Bram Stoker. It is implied that, in life, Dracula practiced black magic, learned from the Scholomance (a folkloric black magic school of Romania said to be run by the devil himself) and it is heavily implied that some of Dracula's powers are not normal vampiric abilities, but rather dark sorcery he learned in life (most likely his ability to control animals and his ability to control the weather due to the Scholomance supposedly teaching "The speech of animals", and the ability to control the weather is essentially the most important part of Scholomance magic). All this info comes strictly from the novel and the wikipedia page for the Scholomance.
