    There could be an issue with most of them being Public Domain. I'm not sure how such laws work in other countries. And technicalky, a few of the ones you listed are owned by Universal. The Creature from the Black Lagoon and Wolfman.

    And in general, I think BHVR would prefer to make their own original concepts based On Vampire, werewolves, stuff like that.

    Technically, BHVR already have mentioned Dracula. Just the 'actual' Dracula, Vlad the Impaler.

    Why would them being public domain be an issue? Anyone can legally make stuff involving Dracula and Frankenstein. Mary Shelly has been dead for centuries and Bram stoker for over a century now. They just need to make the characters look unique/like their novel versions, and not borrow anything from established copyrighted works like universal. Many famous IP's use Dracula, such as Marvel Comics and Castlevania. A werewolf could be done, as that's just a mythological creature. The Wolfman as portrayed in the film from the 40's, wouldn't be allowed, though. Same with the Creature.
