The most problematic part of this fight is the beam of light, you have to avoid that at all cost. He will use a sword to attack you and he will also turn on the light in between. You have to stay away from the light to avoid health damage. McCullum will not change his position fast, so you can track him down easily. Let him attack first and dodge. The fight will take time, so play slowly. Whenever you have a chance bite him. You cannot attack him if he is standing in the light. He can also resist your attacks. This will be one of the toughest boss fight.

After defeating him you will have two choices, you can either spare him or turn him to a vampire. Spare Him is recommended, because he will meet you later in the game once you have gathered antidote ingredients. But if you choose to Turn Him, still you will meet him later in the game, he will give you blood of King Arthur. Sparing him is recommended, once you do that go to Doris Fletcher’s theater to save Dr. Swansea.
