That one's pretty much on Bram Stoker. No solid evidence prior to him. Many stories prior where it clearly wasn't an issue.
Asian and European and African vampire legends are different, and have variations within.
Caine, (son of Adam, killer of Able) was labelled The First Vampire over a thousand years before Bram Stoker. Stories said couldn't enter holy ground, but would often let him enter private homes without invitation.
Bram Stoker was only interested in writing a good story. He never tried to 'document' vampire legends. Hollyweird is just lazy.
Couple of points I recently learned, the "permission to enter home" did evolve around the Dark ages to Medieval era of Europe, where it was believed "evil, unclean demons and vampires" were unable to enter a home (most likely Christian) uninvited because they were considered embodiment of pure evil and evil cant live in a house of goodness.
Check the Rumanian and Eastern European countries to read their variations. Since then the "invite to home" legend has sometimes been altered at some point, and some even believe any demon/vampire can enter anyone home regardless of be invited, just to torment, or feed off the innocent. Lost of weird beliefs and customs back then, that even are believed today.
The myth about "Kane and Able" is just lies told by someone long after either of the brothers were dead. I guess someone wanted to fantasize about one of them being a demon or vampire because he committed murder to his brother, but this is just fantasy
The stories of them being unable to enter Holly Grounds is once again related to the fact they are evil, unholy and vile abominations that live in the darkness and are unable to enter a sacred place like a church, or Holly Land.
I love Bram Stokers "Drakula." He was a great writer of that time and although there are elements of truth to his story, yes, it is in deed fantasy and based on his imagination.
There were other stories written in the 18th and 19th centuries, before Bram Stoker, who wrote about vampires.
