From Witcher Wiki
Garkains are lower vampires unique to the game. They are so foul that the mere sight of one paralyzes opponents, especially sensitive ones. Apart from using its ugliness as a weapon, the garkain has at its disposal an amazing variety of ways to pin down victims and suck their blood.
| "Garkains, the filthiest of vampires, are uglier even than fleders. Since fleders are widely despised for their looks, it is easy to imagine how abominable garkains must be. As vampires, the creatures drink blood but they are also drawn to fresh meat, or even corpses. Garkains are often mistaken for gargoyles because they lurk on rooftops, waiting to dive at their victims."

- In Murky Waters, Geralt may have a chat about Garkains with a "Peasant woman." She's concerned for a family member who suffered a Garkain attack and now suffers from poison. Geralt helps her identify the poison. The conversation will result in a Garkain bestiary entry along with any associated ingredient entries he doesn't have yet.
- In Old Vizima at the Hospital (and sometimes in various houses in the area) there's a "Diseased man" that asks for something to eat. In return, he will unlock Garkains and their alchemies.
