Vampire canon = body of official literature regarding vampires.

Vampire cannon= device for launching vampires using gunpowder.

A cannon seems redundant as most vampire lore allows them to fly or transform into something enabling flight. Maybe a cannon is for rapid deployment of vampires? The question then is how do you prevent immolation during firing?

Encase the vampire in a sabot first.

They wear daredevil suits to reduce air resistance

Why bother? Vampires can only die in specific ways, and I'm pretty sure I've never seen "getting shot out of a cannon" on that list

Fire often is, which is a possible side effect of gunpowder

We're going to try the myth that if a vampire is fired out of a cannon, using his coffin as a sabot, into a picket fence.... will the resultant impaling be enough to render the undead dead dead.

I was super excited for a minute thinking maybe we were getting a movie about vampire circus performers hurtling through the air.

Ok, so I like bad movies.

(Spoilers for Hollow Knight: The Grimm Troupe)

This reminds me of a certain boss in that expansion. Enjoy!
