So, all week, everyone was trying to figure out who the vampire was. Whenever I was with a group of scummers, I acted super pro-town and good and stuff, but whenever I was alone with one scummer, and no one else was looking, I would grab them by the arm, lean over, and quietly tell them that I was the vampire and I had "bitten" them (recruited them, turned them into another vampire I guess). This was going on the entire time we were there.
