Hello, collective!
I have a good stumper for you today.

A patron is looking for a series of books, he thought
there were about twelve in the series about a vampire
planet. He also thought there was a character named
Harry Cohen or Cone in the series. He mentioned
something about the vampires going through a gate to
get to the vampire planet. He also thought the series
came out in the 80s.

Ring any bells?

That sounds an awful lot like Brian Lumley's Necroscope series (which
unsurprisingly starts with the book, "Necroscope"). At least in the
beginning the main character is Harry Keogh, and he is pitted against
vampires that are actually aliens from another planet. While the first
couple take place mainly on earth, I believe that later ones involve travel
to other planets. The first in the series was published in 1986, and it's
at least up to 11 or 12 volumes in the series. Hope that helps.

Hi,
I think your patron is looking for a series by Jacqueline Lichtenberg. The
two books in the series were _Dreamspy_ and Those of My Blood_. She is a
wonderful writer.

Kaite,

Sounds like the Necroscope series/Vampire World series by Brian Lumley
and (mostly) starring Harry Keogh. The first book, Necroscope, came
out in 1986.
