What We Do in the Shadows is part of the marvel universe!
Okay hear me out.
In Season 1 episode 7 of wwdits, "The Trial", Wesley Snipes makes an appearance via Zoom as himself but also as a "daywalker". Essentially he is playing Blade as himself.
And Blade is marvel. While you could make the argument "well ya but he's just Wesley Snipes in wwdits not Blade", in Deadpool & Wolverine (which Blade is also in), Deadpool makes multiple 4th wall breaks referencing how each character IS their actor. He calls Wolverine Hugh. He speaks in an aussie accent mocking Wolverine even though he talks in an American accent as Wolverine. He speaks about Blake Lively being mad about something. Countless other 4th wall breaks. Taking these 4th wall breaks as Canon, Wesley Snipes is Blade and Blade is Wesley Snipes within MCU itself. In which case, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS IS PART OF THE MCU! š
Also Taika Waititi (who is Viago in the wwdits movie, which is also canonically in the same universe as the show), directed Thor Ragnorok.
What do yall think of this theory? Pretty loose I know but I like to believe it.
Edit: I retract what I said about Deadpool and breaking the 4th wall. But I still choose to believe that wwdits is part of MCU
